The U.S consumed about 64.3 billion gallons of finished motor gasoline in 2008. There are approximately 43 gallons of motor gasoline per barrel (and 19.6 gallons can be refined from each barrel of crude oil). This statistic does not include other distillates such as jet fuel and heating oil.

The estimated use by the US Department of Energy was higher:
For 2010, it was estimated at 138 billion gallons.
For 2011, projected use was 142 billion gallons (9.12 million barrels a day).

How many gallons is 1650 kg?

It depends on what fluid you have. If it's water, it's about 435.9 gallons, depending on temperature. If you have that weight of gasoline, it's be more gallons, because gasoline is relatively light. If it's carbon tetrachloride (a solvent used for cleaning), it'd be fewer gallons. A 55-gallon drum of water weighs 458 pounds plus tare. Fill that same drum with gasoline and it's 336 pounds. Carbon tet and it's 733 pounds, more than twice as much as gasoline. And if it was mercury, it'd be REALLY heavy. Don't drop that drum on your toes!
