Every time you fill up the car, you can avoid putting more money into
the coffers of Saudi Arabia. Just buy from gas companies that don't
import their oil from the Saudis. Nothing is more frustrating than the feeling
that every time I fill-up the tank, I am sending my money to people who are trying to kill me, my family, and my friends. I thought it might be
interesting for you to know which oil companies are the best to buy gas
from.

Major companies that import Middle Eastern oil (for the period 9/1/00
8/31/01).

Shell................ 205,742,000 barrels
Chevron/Texaco....... 144,332,000 barrels
Exxon /Mobil......... 130,082,000 barrels
Marathon............. 117,740,000 barrels
Amoco................ 62,231,000 barrels

If you do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $18
BILLION!

Here are some large companies that do not import Middle Eastern oil:

Citgo 0 barrels
Sunoco 0 barrels
Conoco 0 barrels
Sinclair 0 barrels
BP/Phillips 0 barrels
Hess 0 barrels

All of this information is available from the Department of Energy and
can be easily documented. Refineries located in the U.S. are required
to
state where they get their oil and how much they are importing. They
report on a monthly basis.

Keep this list in your car; share it with friends. Stop paying for
terrorism.............

 

Good to know. I alwas wondered about that. What about QuickTrip (QT)?

 

I'm glad you brought this up Vince, since the ONLY down side of owning a Vette, (or any other car for that matter) is that it makes our enemies richer.
Thanks for the info!!!
Anybody try an alterante fuel conversion on a Vette?? :D
:seeya :seeya

 

how about speedway? i always use the one near my house, they are usually the cheapest...

 

we still have our oil here. we are waiting for theres to run out before we pump out all of ours. it may take a while but they will run out. i would rather deplete the resources from the middle east than here at home.

 

if you could give us a link to the info, that would be great. I tried going to the dept of energy and couldn't find what i was looking for. Again thanks for the info.

 

Very interesting.......I usually use Citgo or BP.....sometimes Shell.....most times not now.... :)

 

Very interesting. I'm glad I get Hess just about all the time. :seeya

 

That narrows it down to Citgo in my area......... and they are at the 7-11s..... oh well at least they sell beer too........ :seeya

 

NOS, straight NOS! :jester

 

Yup, precisely one huge reason I buy Sunoco (94 octane) :yesnod:
The Saudis ARE NOT are allies, they need US way more than we need them, and that goes triple to all the other failed regimes/terrorist nations over in that despicable part of the world :chevy :chevy :chevy :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod:

 

i guess i will have to drive around to find a company that uses american oil since i don't know about QT.

 

Looks like I'm switching to Citgo!

I too, hate to think that I'm financing the people who are trying to kill me. :mad

 

I usally go to Conoco - good for me! :yesnod: :cheers:

 

Interesting story. Too bad it's :bs :D
