The U.S has 2 gallons, the liquid gallon which is 3.785 litres, and the dry gallon which is 4.405 litres.

The Imperial gallon is 4.546 litres. Since it is volumetric difference of liquid, there is a margin of 0.62 litres, and that is slightly more than a handy bottle of pepsi (not the big one which is 1.5 litres).

By ratio and proportion, it could have costed alot since fuel prices are hiking towards US$100 per bbl. But I don't think this could have been an issue with the fuel, but rather industrial protection because US is losing local jobs opportunities due to reduced investment and exports.

Most of all, you have to be disciplined and you have to save, even if you hate our current financial system. Because if you don't save, then you're guaranteed to end up with nothing.
