Yeah, and how many people who buy a new Ford with the Eco Boost engines are actually going to use premium?
The new Camero requires it, but I see people using the cheap stuff.
People buy American cars because they are cheap, cheap top buy, cheap to fix, cheap to maintain and cheap to put gas in.
They also dont last as long.
