See...this is one thing that has always bugged me. If you buy a gallon of milk, motor oil, or paint in Canada it's 3.78l.. not 4.54l. All our products are tied to the US market so why would anybody use anything but the US gallon when calculating gas milage.. I don't.

Hey, why doesn't my '80 get better gas mileage, it was built in Canada.
