I have a 07 F150 S crew. I noticed Ford recomends BP gas. Does it make a lot of difference? Which is best?

 

My guess is BP paid Ford to put that logo on all the new gas caps...or maybe BP gave all the Ford CEO's free gas cards to put that logo on the gas caps...who knows. As long as you're getting BP, Sunoco, Exxon, Texaco, Sheetz, or something along those lines, I wouldn't worry.

 

I'm pretty sure they are recomending BP Gas just for E-85 Ethanol, since its written in Green!

 

it took me some research before i even know what bp was...i'm halfway expecting to open the hood of my next vehicle and find a 3' wide mobil 1 banner ad

 

Ford has recommended using BP gasoline in their vehicles for years now.

 

Its all about politics between Ford & BP.

 

I love the color of your truck(in your sig).

 

x2 on running the ones above. I filled up at a mom and pops station and only went 20 miles before the needle moved usually I can go 40-50 before it moves. On the way from taking my brother to work after getting the gas I literally watched my needle drop in the 12 miles I had to drive.

 

Yeah congrats on the new truck man

 

i actually had a mechanic at the ford dealership here recommend me only to use chevron, because the techron eliminates the sulfur in the gas, which is uncommonly high down here in bama.

Unless the station gets its delivers straight from the refinery, the fuel in their tanks could have been refined by anyone who utilizes the pipe line system. BP may put in 10 million gallons at one end, but on the other end the fuel they take out was most likely refined by another company. They all have to meet certain standards to use the pipe line. The only difference is the additives they put in it at the other end (if any).

 

your right mostly... raw gasoline (no additives) is shared by all from the same pipeline. When the gasoline gets to each different brand distribution station, that particular brand's additives will be added, ensuring that shell gas goes to shell stations and bp gas goes to bp stations and so on. There is a big difference in additives... so brand does matter.

 

A man was driving down the road and ran out of gas.
Just at that moment, a bee flew in his window.

The bee said, "What seems to be the problem"?

"I'm out of gas!"

The bee told the man to wait right there
and flew away. Minutes later, the man
watched as an entire swarm of bees flew
to his car and into his gas tank. After a
few minutes, the bees flew out.

"Try it now," said one bee.

The man turned the ignition key and the
car started right up.
"Wow!" the man exclaimed.
"What did you put in my gas tank"?

The bee answered, "BP."

 

LMAO!!

 

Have you noticed the price is begginning to slide back. Don't get your hopes up. Memorial day is around the corner and it will clear 3 bucks a gallon then.
