They do, but my odometer is in miles, and I can still relate to mpg better
than litres per 100 km, so I convert that way. Besides, no one in the US, last
hold out of non-Metric, would be able to understand it if I gave Metric.
BTW, I did Lake Tahoe to Vancouver BC in a one shot 13 hours a few years ago.
Love that Interceptor (same one) for effortless crusing.
