    The automotive business has been converting to metrics for the last
    twelve years. All of the new cars are now metric measurements. It
    took a while because of some of the old engines had to be changed
    over, but now those are gone and all engines are entirely metric.
    All of the prints for parts that I work with now are metric. 

    Now if we could get the construction trades to go metric, which is
    much larger hurdle then the auto industry.
