Hundreds of thousands of vehicle sales and millions of service repairs later, the Ourisman philosophy and mission continues to be "INTEGRITY". After nearly 60 years of Mandell Ourisman's, his sons' and now, a fourth generation's leadership, a century of sales and service to the Wasington metropolitan area is an approaching milestone. Washingtonians know, "You always get your way at Ourisman every day," with the convenience of 26 franchises in 17 locations, in and around the Washington metro area.

		In September 2008, Ourisman Environmental LLC began selling and installing "at home" refueling appliances for buyers of vehicles that run on compressed natural gas (CNG). In 2011, OE became regional distributors and expanded to include "at business" vehicle refueling. CNG is an abundant clean burning fuel that is sourced nearly 100% in North America. It offers an economical and environmentally friendly alternative to foreign oil and gasoline. Until recently, it's availability for automotive uses has not been widespread in this country. In addition, Ourisman Environmental has also become a manufactured approved, regional full service, "turn key" provider for "quick charge" systems and the permits and component needed to re-charge "plug in" electric vehicles at home.
