I stick with 93 octane.
Like Dave03s stated... Go cheap and suffer the consequences.

I wish I could get 93 octane. 92 is the best you can get in Idaho and that's ethanol. 91 ethanol free is the best I've seen here.

IMHO the best gas is the type you don't have to pay for!

I tried Costco gas in Oregon and my truck didn't like it to well. Probably different supply line though. I am however keenly aware of how nice my truck can run with the right fuel so of course I'm OCD about noticing differences... I can totally see if you didn't know better you'd think these engines all run like old IH Scouts. When running optimum fuel as per the ECU's programming these can be smooth as a kitten, all things sorted of course.

wow so if I'm doing the math correct that's 83 cents a litre
here in Canada Toronto we're currently paying 1.37 per litre for 87
$1.52 per litre for 91
