More like 500... or 492 to be exact. I'm glad to see us Yanks are better
at converting metric to English than Canadians. I can even figure out
100 kph is 62 mph without a calculator. I will admit I throw my hands up
in despair at going from loonies per liter to dollars per gallon. I did
have the sneaky suspicion I was getting raped at the pump in Alberta and
it was better I didn't know exactly how badly.
