As a comparison: The cheapest diesel available in Finland right now on September the 14th is 2.222 โ‚ฌ per litre. That translates to 9.71 USD per gallon. The most expensive available today is 2.611 โ‚ฌ/l, translating to 11.41 $/gallon

    So you telling me the US will start using metric because it'll be cheaper than replacing/upgrading every pump to display another digit...

    I remember when they started selling gasoline by the 1/2 gallon - because the price went over $1.00/gal and the pumps didn't have a dollar position to program into them. I said then they should go up to at least two dollar digits per gallon, but no one listened to me - just like today.

    Gosh I must be old.
