^ but is the better mileage worth how much you pay for the higher octane over the low octane?

I think so, i dont mind paying afew extra cents for many extra miles in the long run and an engine that may last longer casue it likes the better gas.

Your actually causing carbon build up inside because its taking it longer to detonate.

Well i guess since everyone says its a waste i may just go back to the 89 octane gas. I alwaysed figured better gas was better for the car.
