I'm sorry, but according to official measurement standards (there's some international standards group that defines them, but I'm too lazy to look up the name), a kilotank would be 1000 tanks, just as a kilometer is 1000 meters, a kilogram is 1000 grams, etc.

With about 95K of my miles on the Insight, and figuring a conservative 700 miles per tank, I'm only at 0.135 Ktanks. I've had the car 7 years, so at this rate I'll get to a kilotank sometime around 2060 :-)
