diesel prices are killing me rn, fortunately i bought 2k liters the day USrael started the terrorist campaign. Prices went from 26.4 to 29.6 mxn per liter in these 2 weeks. I am about to run out and i guess i should buy another 2k before it increases even further, DEATH TO USRAEL.

Funny side piece, 8 years ago the opposition parties in Mexico were saying that investing in oil was a investing in a sinking ship because and i quote "oil is on it's way out" (their goal complete the privatization of oil and give it to the US), now they're saying that oil prices are way too high.

Due to the oil prices, I am starting to think real hard on buying an EV for my little family's business.

The BYD pickup that I sometimes see from farmers in my small city is looking like a buy option with each passing day.

Tell me how it goes. I’m thinking of buying one too, once it becomes avaliable

I feel like that one pickup is the weakest offering they have, i personally love the BYD seal u dm-i (also hybrid) but you're right about it being a better alternative. It's an hybrid so it's ideal for my use case, still it's kinda expensive compared to the other offerings.

The sorry state of the Mexican oil industry just enforces the idea that energy sovereignty equals national sovereignty: https://monthlyreview.org/articles/the-shale-revolution-u-s-energy-imperialism-and-mexicos-dependence/
