There is no little US gallon--it's a gallon. And it's hardly free--costs over $20 to fill the auto.

The Saturn has a 12 Gal tank, so almost 500 miles per tankful.

I paid $2.359/L on the weekend. Of course my car is European and needs premium. Even if I had a car that ran on regular it would still cost over $2.10 per litre. There are some downsides to living in a small remote country.

My subaru cost about 22 dollars currently to fill up and it only gets about 263 miles per tank.
Miss my integra, 10 gallons would go 400 miles.

Today's WUOT mystery melody. I did the hard work of figuring it out. You're welcome.

34 degrees American and gusting 30 mph. Grand Rapids is B-E-A-Utiful. Y’all are missing out.
