Well, if you consider that we get 800 million barrels of oil a day from Alberta alone, even if only one gallon of gas is extracted per barrel,(a very conservative figure) that already more than doubles that figure you gave. Add up our total daily imports, and you'll get a better number. since they claim our refineries are running at peak, we are using almost all of it a day. The point was and is, the government is raking in a lot more than they want us to know.

The average gasoline consumption in the US is about 9.27 million barrels per day or 389 million gallons per day.
