Michael -

One minor point of correction: 1 gallon US = 3.785 liters.....NOT 4 liters.

So in the US you will be seeing 23.67 miles/gallon, instead of 25 mpg as in your example.

Regarding US/Canadian gas price comparisons, using your $CDN .937/L pump price, and a .83 $CDN to $US exchange rate, the calculation becomes:

.937 $/L x 3.785 L/galUS x .83 $US/$CDN = $2.95 US per gallon.

This is not quite the $3.10 as you suggest. But the bottom line is you guys north of the border still are paying a LOT more for gas than we are here in NY State (currently avaraging about $2.45, which incidentally is near the high end of US gas prices).

Have a safe and Happy New Year!
