So next time you ride your sled, only stop at a Marathon and skip the Citgo....... Let me know how that works out.
Nope I don't charter, never will. NO money in it. Plus why would I want to take a bunch of strangers out on MY boat so they can beat it up, mess up my equipment and fight all the fish? I have a boat so I can fight the fish. I slip in Municipal Marina.
Don't take me the wrong way, there is nothing wrong with trying to buy american. But just because the parent company is in the US doesn't mean the labor/parts are made here. I want my money to go to the guy on the line, not the stockholder.

I agree.
I drive a Toyota because the Fords that I had previously were junk. Maybe I got lemons or whatever but I haven't had any problems with Toyota. Not trying to bash Ford.
My Toyota was assembled in the US and US workers got paid to do it. There's parts for it made all over the world just like everyone else.
Unions are what are killing this country and therefore I try to not buy anything made from companies that are unionized.
Just saying. I have my reasons. Unions should get real. There's no denying that if it wasn't for the Unions the FED wouldn't have had to bail them out. That is reason enough.
When a guy that pushes a broom gets $35 an hr, the cost has to be passed on to someone...I.E. the $65,000 cost of a Tahoe.. The unions got greedy and killed this US economy themselves. I'm not trying to knock any Union guys, I am just stating the facts.
Without a doubt the Unions are what killed the economy.
I also agree that I'm not trying to personally bash those that involved in unions.
The unions got greedy and killed the economy! Absolutely wrong, someone who is proud to be AMERICAN and not ignorant AND KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT when talking about the economy would know better than to say such a dumb thing.

"We are a global player out to succeed in any geography where we participate in," says Thomas M. Connelly, chief innovation officer at DuPont. "We want our resources close to where our customers are, to tailor products to their needs." --DuPont
""We are not fulfilling the educational needs of our young people," says Sachs. "In a globalized world, there are serious consequences to that." -- Columbia University (Sachs)
Yup....I'm a Dummy........ What statement did I use in my original post "Global Economy"? Buddy, I'm right in the middle of the Automotive world. Not just One of the manufactures, but ALL Of them. If the country as a whole was to cut out forgein cars that are made here in the US, we would be doomed. Ford, GM, and Chrysler not only make ALOT of parts overseas, but assemble alot of cars there as well.
Again this has nothing to do with bashing union, or even being american for that matter. This is the truth. Its a GLOBAL Economy now and you have to realize and understand that. Its not not 1975 anymore. Most of GM's cars are being based on Global platforms.....Alpha ,gamma, delta, zeta, etc...... Platforms that can be used in multiple countries and make a multitude of cars. If they didn't do this, they would be going down for sure.

Interesting transition from "Where can I buy Sea and Snow?" to "Did unions kill our economy?"...

Just wondering when John is going to put an embargo on oil chat. Or maybe have a sub section called gloves off. Lol
I buy Arctic Cat oil to support my dealer. If I was looking at saving money I would buy Mystic Sea and Snow.
I always enjoy these oil threads. When I first got hooked on this John Dee website, I was cluesless about sled oil and just figured you needed to buy it from your dealer or otherwise you were going to grenade your machine. So whether it's Sea and Snow, Amsoil, or Klotz that you use, this thread is beneficial because I am sure a lot of people who are on tight budgets have saved money and maybe made an extra trip North because of it. I think as much as Ezra and Polarisrider1 say they hate this topic, I know down deep they can't wait to open this thread each day.

Lol, your right.
Citgo now calls their Sea & Snow "Mystik Sea & Snow" and the JT-4 that you saw is the full-synthetic oil.
Our local Mill's Fleet Farms carry both of the oils, maybe Farm & Fleet does too, just doesn't show it on their website?
