Which gallon US or Imperial ?

Either would do; in my figures below i was using Imperial gallons
(because I know how big they are).

Why not "pounds", like an aircraft?

Pounds aren't as unit of volume.

Immagine that.

True of course...but aircraft fuel is indeed measured in pounds
because you need to know how much weight you have.

And you burn some pounds per hour, at some SAT.
