In fact, United Refining Company uses only 100% North American crude oil, and that oil is refined right here in Pennsylvania.

Seems pretty simple. Kills that "global commodity" arguement very effectively.

Dear Kwik Fill,

Expand your sales area to include VA and I promise you that you won't be able to build your stations fast enough!

Sincerely,
Pgkdan

United Refining needs to add a “no ethanol” grade. I pay extra for no-ethanol gas whenever I can find it, because my gas mileage improves by about 4MPG.

Mining for oil here in the U.S. and transporting other oil from Canadian sources is "going to make prices lower,"

Unless you have govt involved!!

Govt is the reason that we have prices where they are right now. Wish they'd butt the hell out!!

Bring some of them stations to the heartland!! We'd buy America first in a heartbeat giving the option!!!

Mr. Catsimatidis says utilizing domestic energy sources, and sources from friendly neighbors — rather than unstable countries in the Middle East — offers greater price stability and less volatile supply for their customers. "What happens if Iraq gets bombed, or Saudi Arabia gets bombed, or Iran stops shipping?" he asks

Answer: The price of domestic oil and gasoline will rise right along with the rest of the world's supply. It's a COMMODITY. That's how it works.

So, while there are good reasons to use domestic products, he's dead wrong about "greater price stability."
