Very interesting logic. So if there is a difference between the various octanes of 20% at $1.00/gal decreasing to 10% at $2.00/gal, then the difference would be further decreased to 5% at $4.00/gal, correct? Following this pattern of inversely proportional % difference and $/gal, it would follow that the lower the delta the more you save (by spending more)? So following that logic you would save more by spending more. LOL.
Somebody must work in the marketing department LMAO! I need to change my major hehe, then I'd be RICH!!
