Me too.
My Blazer see only 87, but thats what it calls for.

I pay $1.05 for AV 100 octane gas. But if you go to Mohawk, their 94 octane is always .02 cents cheaper than Chevron's. That's because they do not carry 91 octane.

My car manual for my LS1 says minimum 91 octane, I only use 94 from Chevron. Anyone thinking of running lower octane should go buy a differant car.

Took the words right out of my mouth. When I bought my car I said I was not going half a$$. Only the best for my baby. Never have and never will see anything but Chevron 94.

Amen to that nothing but Chevron 94 if you don't want to pay at the pump get a hybrid. LT1s and LS1s are high compression performance cars comes with the territory.

$1.125 for 94 today... I'm going to guess that around July it'll be $1.25, anyone else have a prediction?

just saw a chrysler pacifica up close today. that thing is huge!!! and they even made the durango bigger. the thing is car companies keep puttign out these huge gas guzzling SUVs and people keep buying em. their mileage is horrible, and people are complaining of a gas shortage. so why doesnt the government just outlaw these beasts?? i mean if all the suvs were off the road dont you think the demand for fuel would go down, thus lowering gas prices?? i think the government should just throw on a 50% tax on those bohemoths to deter people from buying em. i mean the majority of the time its just one guy in there anyway. hell i think bunkers car gets better milage then the majority of SUVs on the road today.

Humm then all the attention will be on us. I kind of like being considered an economy car next to the GMC Tahoe, Cady Excalade, and Hummer.
