SO today i was talking to my friend on what Gas he uses and he says he only uses Shell. THat is what they recommended on his forms for BMW. I know a lot of people for G uses recommend Chevron or 76. BUt what do you guys use for your car?

 

chevron, 76 n when in emergency i use united..

 

shell chevron and i chose other cause im not sure what brand of gas it is on military posts

 

Whichever is the closest. Usually its Chevron

 

For some reason I get the best mileage and performance from Valero 93.

 

Shell 91 is the best in my area, living at 5,700 feet above sea level

I ranged between between 18-22 mpg, so far Im at 25.6 (20% city, 80% highway)

 

99% of the time I use shell 93. I have read the shell goes through great lengths to ensure the quality/cleanliness of their fuels from drilling-shipping-storage.

if I am running low on gas and not near my shell, I also use mobile, or chevron.

 

Literally "Unbranded" Ethanol free gas from a known station in town.

 

Shell Premium only.
Sometimes I'll use BP (I used to work at BP , ironically).
Other than that I just really drive around until I find a Shell

 

I use whatever gas station I can get in and out of without scraping. By my house that is 76, which is what I prefer. I usually look for Chevron or Shell stations as alternates.

 

What gas would you not put in and why?

 

Chevron, 76, Shell. In that order.

 

and its not mobilE ;-p

 

76 because that's what they have at the tracks... also the only gas stations around with 100 octane.

I avoid Chevron/Texaco because of their additives, which aren't horrible by any means, and I would prefer using Shell or Arco in emergencies when I can't find a 76 due to their less harsh additives.

 

^They have 100 octane in the Bay area?
