The metric system is digital. The English system is analog. People are naturally analog. Metric is great for science but but unnatural for humans. We like to say things like "quarter tank or half full".

Ok sure, but what happens to Violet's watch face and what did she decide to do?

On the contrary, it's the unit of measurement all of the civilized world uses. One that actually makes sense. And if you want to know what NASA uses, a simple Google search will do: https://www.nasa.gov/offices/oce/functions/standards/isu.html .

If it makes so much sense, why after 40 years is canada only half converted? French scientists came up with it and it took 50 years to force their own people to convert.

Seriously!

On a brighter note, it looks like the new Tacoma seems to be getting some good fuel economy numbers. Ranging from 20 to 30 miles per US gallon. After I convert that to Imp. Gallon it looks even better.
I only wish the new motor had more balls in the lower RPM. The 5VZ-FE in the 4Runner seems to have more grunt.

Mine is very accurate compared to what I get with Fuelly, usually within .1 or .2. Most of my past vehicles have been overly optimistic by 2-3 mpg
