No Daniel, that is 33 MPG in Imperial gallons, in US Gallons I would be getting around 27. The US Gallon and Imperial one are not that far apart. Canadian gallons when we had em were the same as those in the UK.

My mileage aint that great compared to what you guys see, but I am only paying right now 80 cents a litre for gas ( so about $3.30 or so a gallon )

Still paying more than the Americans though. They were selling gas in NY State yesterday for less than 2 dollars a gallon and NY has some of the highest prices in the US outside of California and Hawaii. That would be about $2.40 Canadian. If fuel costs here what it does in the UK, I would have a 4 cylinder no question.

It is a little puzzling that when oil was around $1.40 a barrel we were paying about $1.38 to $1.34 per litre and now with oil at about $35 a barrel we are paying .80 to .85 a litre. (local stations) And .5 difference a litre is about .22 a gallon from station to station.
Something is a little out of whack here.

Daniel, contrary to popular belief, I am a very proud member of the Commonwealth. When we Canucks say Gallons, we are using the same ones you guys would think of. I only sound American in my posts on occasion....but the minute I am thought of as one, I do get a little touchy. Us Canadians live with an identity crisis...lol...we know we are not Americans but we are not sure what we are after that. Then we go to the pub, watch a hockey game on TV with a beer and forget it all....

I just made the assumption that because you were just above the US you'd use their measurements :p I can assure you this won't happen again :p

My truck (V8 4x4, supercab) 12-14 around town, about 20 highway

SUV (Inline 6 with more HP than the truck) 13-15 around town 22-25 highway

Saturn (4 banger econo car) 30-35 town, have reached 45+ highway

All in US gallons MPG.

My Tundra V8 4.7 gets 19 on the highway U.S. I'd prefer not to know what it gets around town! :(
My Aprillia 750 gets a combined 38 U.S. :)

Found something which I thought some of you might find interesting :)

It's basically a site called Fuelly which allows you to record all your fuel ups and keep track of fuel economy :)

My fuel economy on the 500 is a bit inaccurate at the moment as the first couple of times when I filled it up I didn't really fill it up but I'm getting about 50mpg out of the little beastie at the moment with 800 miles on the clock.
