Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Ferrari is racing a DIESEL!!! mileage -some are moreequal than...

[Peter Pless (ferrarilist]

Well, considering a US gallon is not the same as an imperial gallon, quite
possibly! 

The Imperial gallon (4.546 09 litres (L)) and bushel (36.368 72 L) are,
respectively, 20% and about 3% larger than the United States liquid gallon
(3.785411784 L) and bushel (35.23907016688 L). The Imperial gallon was
originally defined as the volume of 10 avoirdupois pounds of water under
specified conditions, and the Imperial bushel was defined as 8 Imperial
gallons.

This statement is interesting: "We average about 48-mpg Canadian, and have
seen a high of 55-mpg."

Are Canadian "miles per gallon" different than the rest of the world???  ;-)
