As long as they aren't colluding, businesses can charge what the market will bear.
If there was sooooooo much margin in gasoline, a mom & pop gas station would charge 5 cents a Litre less and cash in on the increase in sales volume.

Gas is a commodity used by just about everyone and has a major influence on all merchandise in stores. It wouldn't be long before governments would regulate it. In fact they do in most countries around the world.
Thule and Yakima (who????) don't quite compare. Such marginal players so they can mark up their stuff all they want and it won't have any effect.
