I’m sorry. This just doesn’t pass the smell test. No way the country is buying 75% less gasoline than 15 years ago.

That was my reaction. But look at this.

It doesn't look like quite as much as a 75% drop. But it is a lot. The weird thing is that the fastest drop seemed to have occurred around 2011-2012. Perhaps some major users switched to something else.

I agree with you. The economy sucks, but that figure has got to be bogus.
