Amoco is back

[b4black]

I think a few have popped up in the area. This one is on Ogden in Aurora (near Rush Copley hospital). It's been 10+ years.

I have a Gulf station near me...which I'd never seen before...but Amoco is definitely a blast from the past

I wonder if it's some form of rebranding from BP.

From Wikipedia;

In October 2017, BP revealed that it will be reintroducing the Amoco name to select US markets.[3] As of August 2018, there are currently 37 new Amoco locations in the states of New York, New Jersey, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Illinois, with more locations opening soon in more states.

There is one out here in Rockford. I did a double take when I saw it.

One going up in Naperville too, where Ogden curves.

Crystal Lake has one on 14 too. Like 2 blocks from a BP. I don't understand their tactics. However my Dad owned an Amoco back in the late 80's so I would go out of my way to get gas there is the prices were close.

Ethanol free? No? No care.

Yes, they replaced the ethanol with bald eagle piss.

Yep, literally a mile from my house. If you’re ever going east on Ogden, those are my burnoutmarks in th left lane in front of that place.

I didn't realize Amoco totally went away. Shows how much I pay attention.
