I'm sure they buy from the bottom of the barrel.. unless thery are a sub of a major oil co...Roll the dice and take your chances. A good friend of mine builds service stations and installs/removes all the equipment....There's huge quality differences from what I've been told...

May have been just a coincidence, but a friend of my wife's buys her gas at a particular WM in our area (the ONLY place she buys gas, every Sat when she goes grocery shopping), and both of their cars had to be towed in dead for bad gas within a two-week period... and the WM guys were certain that it wasn't them!

I put Sams club gas in my truck and never had a problem, sometimes it 15 cents chaeper a gallon, my friends folks own a gas trucking company, the gas all comes from the same place, just diffrent additives for each company

Guys, theres only so many refineries in the USA, gotta belive that much of the gas comes from the same place?

Now the additives may be different. I have seen gas truck loading up a name brand gas station, then going across the street to a mom and pop gas station and loading them up as well........

WM gas comes from China, like most of their products. Maybe on the trip over from the Orient it gets more condensation in the tanks than other brands. Hey, I wait in the gas line for as long as it takes just to save .03 a gallon. Sometimes that adds up to maybe .60 to .70 a tankful! I am NO fool!
