whats your gas price?
Valencia/Santa Clarita area
Least expensive Chevron premium is currently $4.17 by the #14 freeway/newhall ave but it's as high as $4.23 at Shell and one Chevron is asking $4.35 which pisses me off...I hate price gougers! I already feel America is getting screwed by the prices we pay for gas!

Been using WaWa for years on both my previous 06 G35 6sp that I put on 171792 miles when I traded it in for my current G37S 6 speed manual. Total mileage driven between both my Infiniti's is over 200k miles and the fuel savings come to thousands of dollars.
Wawa is open 24/7 and they pump a lot of gas. Their prices are usually the lowest with the same price for cash or credit.

No I hear ya lol
Comin from a family that used to own two Mobils, we were always taught to stay far away from convenience store gas stations. Personally I feel I get better mpg's using Shell no ethanol premium. Regardless sounds like your way works for you

Do you ever observe who is delivering gasoline to gas stations in your area.
I see these trunks
http://www.islandtrans.com/
delivering gas to Shell, Mobil, WaWA, Hess, and many others.
It all comes from the NJ Bayway refinery.

Some companies would like you and many others to believe their hype and the millions of advertising dollars that they spend trying to convince you to spend extra money to buy their product.
I've never believed their BS
I buy the cheapest gas I can find at high volume stations

It's true that most stations here in ST get their gas from the same supplier (Coastal States). HOWEVER, and this comes directly from the blending station guys, each brand name has THEIR OWN FORMULA. They are custom blended with additives specific to the brand. (i.e. Chevron's Techcron) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techron)

Me too!
The next time I am at the station with the delivery truck, I'm going to ask some questions of the driver.

I find it hard to believe that each truck filling up at the refinery gets a custom blend of gasoline

But this doesn't mean that all gas is the same, even though it starts out that way. The fuel from different filling stations comes from a common source: the "base gas" from a refinery. Workers there mix additives mandated by the Environmental Protection Agency into the base gas in order to clean a car's engine and reduce emissions. Then, the different gas companies — both off-brand and major brands — put their own additive packages in the gas to further boost both cleaning and performance.
A key difference is that the major brands put more additives in their gas and claim to have some secret ingredients. This extra shot of additives provides an additional level of cleaning and protection for your engine.

"Because of the advances in engine technology, a car's onboard computer is able to adjust for the inevitable variations in fuel, so most drivers won't notice a drop off in performance between different brands of fuel, from the most additive-rich gas sold by the major brands to the bare-bones stuff at your corner quickie mart.
Still, spending a few extra pennies per gallon might provide peace of mind to someone who just purchased a new car and wants to keep it as long as possible. People with older cars might not be as concerned about their engine's longevity. They can buy the less expensive gas and still be OK."
Steve Mazor, chief automotive engineer with the Automobile Club of Southern California, summed it up this way: "Buy the cheapest gas that is closest to you."
The dealer where I purchased my two Infiniti's delivers brand new vehicles with a full tank of regular.
