Guys & Gals

'Wow!!!!

You really do take this weight thing seriously
I thought by putting that little squiggly line in (~) it would give 
me some latitude in exact numbers.  I knew I was quoting on the high 
end but figured it would make you feel better. After all isn't that 
what its all about. 

All of you who challenged my figures were correct.
US gallon  6 - 6.3 pounds depending on what type and grade of gas
Imperial (what I use)  7.2 - 7.5 pounds

Just a tip
You can increase these numbers if you drive in a vacuum.
