I did everything I needed to do today without my car and still traveled about 10 miles.

So.. My fuel was a ruby red grapefruit, two pieces of toast and a bowl of oatmeal.

The last time I filled my gas tank was about 6 weeks ago.

$3:29 here in south Ga.

Just a note for those buying premium...higher octane gasoline is designed for more powerful engines, Higher octane is not more powerful, it is actually less...it is slower burning. the reason for that, is the high horsepower engines have more compression, and are more susceptible to premature firing, what i mean by that, is the piston is approaching the top of the cylinder, lower octane gas will fire before it gets there, with the intake valve slightly open, this can damage the valves and pistons over time. I told you all that to tell you this...

Check with your car dealer ask them what compression ratio your engine has, if it is less than 10 to 1, then you do not need premium fuel. around 10 to 1...maybe mid grade, 9.5 or less..regular.

Thought i would pass this on
