If that's miles per us gallon then I'm fairly close with guess. Will translate to 13-14 miles per imperial gallon.

Nothing like optimism, enthusiasm and estimation to give good numbers.

I have found that many of these liars have never done the math or don't know how to do it. Some can do the math, but they don't use the right procedure. They should get a scan guage and with their procedure you can't miss getting it right.
