Arbco
From Transformers Wiki
Arbco is an oil company with a flair for ssslick marketing. The latest gimmick from the snake-oil salesmen: the surprisingly catchy jingle "Put a Snake in Your Tank". What it doesn't want you to know is that it's a front company for the ruthless terrorist organization, Cobra.

Notes

- The Arbco logo is based on that of the real-life Amoco oil company.
- In a similar fashion, their jingle riffs the "put a tiger in your tank" slogan used by Exxon.
