so over on F-150forum a member posted this picture of a window sticker. another member asked if 37 miles per gallon is right and the OP replied with something along the lines of "ya, imagine that". so what unit of measurement is the 23 city and 37 highway in?

 

Pic doesn't show, you can't copy the attachment and then post it as a picture, you need the root url to post the pic.

I would suspect that the mileage is kilometers per deciliter or something like that.

There is approximately 1.6 kilometers in a mile so may be able to work it out from that.

 

Miles per Imperial gallon. 1.0 Imperial gallons = 1.201 U.S. gallons.

 

Actually my window sticker popped up just yesterday and I wondered the same thing (I'm in Toronto). So I compared it to a US sticker to figure out what's going wrong (Did I somehow order a mustang with a 4 banger?!). The long and short of it is that the numbers are accurate (in a way). They are the upper high end of potential fuel mileage for city and highway and if you look on a US window sticker it will show a range of expected mileage. What they did in Canada is to just take the upper end (whereas in the US they posted the mid range of expected mileage).

 

Canadian window stickers use the Imperial Gallon instead of the US Gallon, hence the difference in the numbers.
