Post High Octane

I stopped by one of these stations and it actually had several different octane levels available. I put in 1/2 96 and 1/2 91. Cost me $8 more for the tank but then again, 91 octane gas is terribly expensive by itself.

Thanks, do you know if you can get anything other than 100 octane though at the pump? I was in Pennsylvania and they had 94 at the pump and it was cheap! It would be great if you could just get 94 out here, and for about the same price!

Some 76 stations have 100 octane unleaded in addition to the 91, 89 and 87 available everywhere. That's about it.
