Hopefully they are insured. I cant imagine owning a business and not being insured.

Most would be hesitant to submit a claim for fear of being dropped or not being able to afford the jacked up premiums after the fact.

The fact they closed last year is crazy as all the volume gas docks at the lake recorded record sales numbers last year.
Yea, the deal in Powell was a Chevron station I believe and was tied to some big money. However, the owner of the MTI ALSO has big money and fought the long fight, eventually winning. I would think it to be a difficult case no matter what.

Nope.

For US standards, it has to be sent to a lab that have, if I remember correct, a variable compression engine specifcally set up to test US octane standards. Not cheap by anyone's standards. There are cheap Ethanol % vs gas testers.
