It really improves the economics of driving.
If the US would change to kilometers, we could probably reduce our dependence on foreign oil by about 1/3.
Well actually you get less, see the next example:
16 miles/gallon(US) = 6.8022993 km/liter
you go from 16, to 6.8 in your mind and thats terrible. he he he he.

Hahahaa......now THAT was funny......

In addition when doing the fuel economy calculations if you use imperial gallons combined with the shorter miles we have here in Canada......you will get waaaaay better fuel economy......least thats what I tell myself at $5.99 per Imperial gallon....yeesh....or $1.32 per litre.....
