Question Q: high octane values in YOUR state?

Hey all. I've been scouring the web for a list of high octane *commonly* available to consumers at the pump on a state-by-state basis. I can't find a thing.

Here in California it's a whopping 91. How about where you are?

As comments come in, I am compiling a list here:

Figured this had to be available someplace but a search on "Google" came up with nothing.

OK, I can get Sunoco 94 (official gummint pump label) in PA.

In Oklahoma, 93 octane is easy to find in cities and larger towns, but hit or miss in small towns and burgs where 91 octane is common.

93 at the pump in Texas and 104 on the race track at a whopping $5+ bucks a gallon.
I have not found in S.Texas any gas station selling anything over 93.

93 is readily available around Kentucky, and there are a few Sunoco's on the way north into Indiana that sell 94. I've never seen anything higher than that.

91 here in Illinois, though a Gas City up the street has 101 octane 'NASCAR GAS!' Around $5/gallon IIRC.

Hawaii
Idaho
Iowa
Kansas
Maine

Thanks to all.
