No problem here in Illinois. Texaco, which once proudly boasted that it was the only brand sold in all 50 states, pulled out of this area several years ago. You can't boycott something you can't get.
This thread kidn of brings up an interesting topic (at least for me), but which really has no place here, so I won't even start it except to mention that it made me curious. There were a lot of shows on OTR sponsored by a lot of products. When I hear ads on old shows, I start to wonder how many of those products are no longer manufactured. Again, not really part of this thread, and I don't know where it would be appropriate on the boards here, but just a thought.
