i dont know what the hell is going on!! I guess my area got some bad gasoline after IKE hit or something. Seems like no matter where i go in town or how much i pay, i ahve been getting some crappy gas! The only place that seems to have decent gasoling is shell!:frustrated:

End of rant...sorry guys

I always get Shell. They are the only place around me that doesn't have 10% ethanol.

Sunoco seems to be cheaper by a bit here too in some places, but very good gas anyways.

I buy it wherever I can find it without the 10% ethanol. Hard to find someone around here that sells 100% gasoline.

I paid 4.45 a gallon for 93 at shell the other night. It took me a while to find it due to the shortages.

When people tell me "Wow, that thing must suck gas" I say "Nope, it runs on the tears of small children... Which seem to be pretty abundant right now."

Its gotten some good laughs :D

My buddy came up with it, I get alot of people just talking to me at the pumps so we had time to think about responses. But everytime I talk to someone in a gas station, the gas guzzling topic always comes up... So I just had to :D

I like shell the best because it smells like real gas.
Then BP then Mobil then citco
Almost all the gas here says up to 10% ethanol
I do remember my best run ever at the track was with Mobil gas though.

I'll be the odd man out and say Chevron. My car runs like crap on anything else, and I refuse to do business with Shell.

my fav is shell v-power, here in south texas its between 75 and a dollar cheaper than 4.45 ( :face_shocked: ) regular 87 octane gas is down to 3.11ish (valero) and no 10% ethanol that ive ever seen ( ??? i have no idea what that is )
