McMahans Bottle Gas The Early Years

McMahans Bottle Gas was started in 1955 by Don McMahan. He owned the business until 1969 when he leased it to Nick Buschur. Nicks brother, Joe, bought the lease from him in 1979 after Nick left McMahans to pursue other business interests. Joe had been working at, and managing McMahans for about ten years. His experience helped make the transition easier, since business was tough in the early 1970s with the gas crunch, escalating prices and the governments price controls.

Where McMahans Bottle Gas Is Now

Since 1979 we have steadily grown our business. At that time we were servicing a couple thousand customers out of one tiny office building. In 1986 we purchased Colwells Bottle Gas. In 1990 we purchased Modernistic Gas Service. This gave us a second location on the North side of town. In 2000 we moved our main office from an 800 square foot building in front of McMahans Trailer Park to a 9,000 square foot building that sits on six acres. We believe that we have one of the finest plants in Ohio. Today between our two plants we service approximately 4,000 customers in seven counties around the Dayton area.  We have always been a family owned business and still are today. We are proud of this industry and our business. We believe propane is a clean and reliable fuel, and look forward to supplying our customers for many years to come.

AutoGas Propane Service

Our business is to provide you with cost-effective, reliable energy to safely power your Dayton Region-based vehicle or fleet. For decades worldwide, propane autogas has been used as a vehicle fuel in fleet applications such as buses, shuttles and police vehicles. Now, consumers are able to buy personal vehicles that are either dedicated propane or bi-fuel.  There are many benefits to be realized by using propane autogas. One is that it potentially lowers vehicle maintenance costs because propanes high octane rating, along with its low carbon and low oil contamination traits can oftentimes result in longer engine life.  Choosing propane autogas for fleets that need a central refueling location is convenient, affordable and reliable. Fleet vehicles that need to refuel on the route can easily find numerous propane autogas refueling stations in every state.  The benefits of propane autogas include fewer harmful emissions released into the air we all breathe. Vehicles using propane autogas emit 25 percent fewer greenhouse gas emissions than those vehicles that run on gasoline, and offer 80 percent fewer smog-producing hydrocarbon emissions than vehicles running on diesel.  Additional good news is that there is an abundant supply of propane autogas produced right here in the United States. This reduces our dependence on foreign oil and helps keep more jobs in America.
