I dont know what the gas prices are in each state but the minimum gas price around here is 3.65 a gallon to me that is just plain ridiculous i thought the gas prices were suppose to go down and stay down i heard that the oil companys were charging more than they were suppose to profit off the public and they got caught and how are they honestly suppose to make it up to us do we really expect them to bring down the prices they get it for to make it up to us i think not anyways its so bad with the economy on the gases that most people if its warm where they live are just riding bikes everywhere noone can afford to drive the way they use too anymore but the oil companies are certainly banking and laughing at us no doubt while we suffer did anyone even know that oil company was doin that to us and got caught?

regular...higher octane doesn't do anything for your car unless it specifically requires it

I use regular in my Buick Rendezvous and it runs just fine.  I've paid 3.59.9 the last time or two. :wave: :wave:

Just wondering what type of gas do u guys use i have a bmw so i use premium not sure if it is necessary to or not but i do.

I have a charger and a saturn vue. we use premium in both cars. When I have used regular unleaded in my vue, I have noticed the car jumping. It doesn't do that with premium.

For me, I use the basic 87 octane gas.  I get gas as the cheapest gas station in town, which is usually Costco or Sam's Club.

My dad didn't realize he was supposed to use Premium gas in his Acura.  He ended up needing a new engine.  Then, a new engine was installed. Ever since he started using Premium, the car works fine.

Good old regular 87 octane unleaded.  There's absolutely no need for anything higher than that for our Ford Focus.
