I Conquered The 2013 -2015 Polar Bear Plunge!!


« on: June 08, 2009, 12:39:58 pm »

Gang, I was wondering if anyone had a pick for the most-crowded or busy QT store? It seems like the QT stores are more busy then ever these days, even with fuel at $2.37 a gallon, sometimes all the pumps are taken I never had that problem before. If ya want to make money open up a QT store franchise... Anyhow my pick for the most busy QT store is the one on E. 165th & Admirial (I-44 exit) You can't get in or out of that place. BTW I found a station that sells pure gasoline, the Pyramid store at Harvard & 51st has a fuel station with a sign on the pumps that says it's pure gasoline! Pure gasoline is getting harder & harder to find in & around "T" Towne! Undecided

QT doesn't franchise.

61st and Lewis is always packed, as is 15th and Denver.

You never had that problem before because you haven't lived here for 20 years.

To add something OT to the subject, my least favorite QT to visit is the one by my work (41st/Garnett).  The Cox trucks hang out there, QT has their maintenance facility right behind it, there's a McDonalds there, two banks, a strip shopping center, a hotel...you get the picture.  It's nuts in the morning there.  I've nearly been hit no less than 10 times in the last 6 months there.  So I quit going to that one and started frequenting the ones at Pine & Mingo and 11th & US169.  Much easier to handle, especially the one up by AA (Pine/Mingo).

I remember reading somewhere that the 15th and Denver location did the most business of any QT in Tulsa, and perhaps of any QT anywhere.

The 15th and Denver location is definitely the busiest location, it also seems to be the headquarters for Tulsa County Public Works.

I've always heard the two truck stop locations are the two busiest, 165th and Admiral and I-44 and 49th West.

The Valore station at 69th & Sheridan also advertises 100% pure gasoline....  and for not that much more expense.  The extra mileage might be worth the extra price.

If you want to find a busy QT, why don't you try a location a bit closer to your home? Something in Des Moines maybe? Omaha?

Good for our groundwater!

If you hadn't figured it out yet, "pure" gas isn't 100% gasoline (not that it's been pure gasoline any time in our lifetimes!) It also has an oxygenate, just not ethanol. The idiots in our state legislature couldn't figure that out, so only mandated that gasoline with ethanol be labeled as such. The other oxygenate has no such requirement, thus the "pure gas" marketing.

LOL 100% pure gasoline.  Does that mean 0 detergents or any other additives?  Which additives are considered pure.  Is pure 100% gasoline using 10% MTBE like before?  100% pure mineral water

I'm not saying that this location is the most busy. But it is the worst one to get in and out of. B.A. and 145th e Av.
Right next to a busy McDonalds and on a terrible two lane road with just two entrances. Bad design all the way around.
