What Brand Gas

What brand gas does everyone use. I have the Edge set at 3. I was using BP 92 and am switching over to Shell 91 to see if I get better performance and better MPG. What gas are you guys using?

We have BP, Quicktrip, Phillips and Valero as our only gas stations in KC. I guess the ones ive been using are european. Weird. Shells used to be Texaco then they all went away for some reason. I used to use that gas all the time.

I use 93 octane as I am running Level 3 on the Edge. While on stock tune or Level 2, I run 87 octane. I use any of the brand names in the area as I have proven to myself that there is a difference in the brand name fuels and the Independent at the local quick stops. I use Shell, Mobil, Conoco and Exxon. Will use Texaco if on a trip and that is what comes up, just none around here. And yes, I know Texaco and Shell are the same, as is Exxon and Mobil.

I run 93 from either Sunoco or Shell.

I used Amoco for years until they got bought out.

X2 95% of the time or else I use Hess. I refuse to use Exxon or Moble just because they are on the news saying how they are making so much money now that the prices are so high.

BP did the same thing though. They are all making money so it is half a dozen of one and 6 on the other.

Just to let you know Shell no longer has the Texaco name. Chevron now owns it now.
