Kilometerage?

Since we track our fuel usage in the USA by the miles we drive, we calculate our vehicles mileage.

I was just wondering if our northern neighbors calculate their fuel usage and call it kilometerage?

Yep, it's a slow day at work.....

Pretty sure that Europe does kilos per liter.

In the old days it was probably furlongs per hogshead

In Canada they measure liters per 100 km. It doesn't mean much to me. I'm old school and I do the miles per gallon, although I use imperial gallons instead of US gallons. I think most call it mileage regardless. This pc types would call it fuel economy.

I didn't see anyone else picking up this thread, slow day for me too

I myself still do MPG most of the time.

But am getting used to dealing with Liters per 100 kms now to, as that is how everything here is rated.

So I guess I am a both ways kind of guy.
But at 40 years old, i am near the age of when we Canucks switched to metric, from imperial measurements.
