Usually I buy Mobil or Shell gas.
Sometimes, when I'm feeling cheap: Pride (an off brand).

You guys do realize that all gas stations get their gas from like a total of 5 oil companies meaning that shell's gas is no different than alot of others.

i usually go to SA or some tiny store with 2 pumps where you pay inside. they tend to have the cheapest gas. our regular is about $2.50 a gal here. i cant think of what 92 is cause they dont put it on the signs anymore and i havent gotten gas in a while

I only run Chevron and have ever since I met a Canadian Weights and Measures employee who was calibrating one of the pumps. His job is to go around and test the flow rate of the pumps to make sure that when the pump says you have pumped a litre or gallon that you actually got a litre or a gallon pumped into your tank. He told me Chevron always rates highest in accuracy with Shell a close second. After that he said it get's sketchy with some gas stations having pumps that rip you off by up to 15%. There is a big fine if they get caught ripping you off.....but it's not big enough to make them stop.

I've filled up at Esso once and noticed car didn't like it, as the engine didn't sing as nicely at 8,200rpm.

up here Chevron carries 94 octane,the . I made the mistake of not filling up before we headed to Seattle 2 weeks ago and I had to use 92 with 2 bottles of octane boost. I thought my car was going to die. I dont know how you guys do it down there,
We have 93 At every gas station..........my car runs fine with it, on 8psi.

dont want to be rude but theres a bit of a difference between my engine and yours.
