Shell - usually pay a little more for the non-ethanol 93. Once a month a couple gallons of 100.

This is exactly correct. Gasoline meets a specification and the differences are the type and amount of additive.

coolest time of the day is best and NEVER when the tanker truck is present.
Very good points snarky! curious about learning more about what you said, why fuel up during the coolest time of the day? and I am guessing that when the tanker truck is present it is bad because you would be scraping the bottom of the fill up tanks?.

Shell and 76. That's a good reminder about the tanker trucks, I was taught that one when I was during motocross in the 90's and filling gas cans.
