87 isnt an option?


lmao!

down here, its rare to find 91. most stations have 87, 89, and 93 and there is the same price difference.

87- 2.25
89- 2.35
93- 2.45
instead of 93 being an extra step higher.

Not to hijack. is it better to use 93 with 10% ethanol or say BP 93 which is 100% unblended?

I've heard that unblended will be better for (at least) your mileage, but I don't know that from experience.

93 would be awesome but it's not available anywhere in New Mexico as far as I know...Maybe sometime when I'm in a neighboring state I'll have to check...Do you guys have 93 anywhere in Colorado, Texas, Oklahoma, Arizona, or Utah? Maybe I'll start filling up over there hahahahaha
