In the episode of The Simpsons entitled ‘A Star Is Burns’, Grampa Simpson uttered: “My car gets forty rods to the hogshead, and that's the way I likes it!” That translates into 504 U.S. gallons per mile, or about 1.2 litres per metre! In units more normal for this purpose, it is 0.00198 miles per US gallon (or about 10.48 feet per gallon) or 118,500 L/100 km. (from Wikipedia)
