GPM. Think you can learn to adapt your mental fuel efficiency calculators from the standard miles per gallon to the European-style gallons per mile? Some say such a shift in the U.S. will help people better understand just how equivalent two vehicles are in terms of burning fuel to get somewhere. Perhaps, but a shift might be happening anyway, and that gasoline consumption in America peaked in 2007.
