I didn't think so, so stop spreading information for people who drive non-premium cars.

Still, knowing what I know, I put premium in all engines that require premium.
To each his own. Chickie311 or anyone else can use regular, but it's 91 or higher for me. Especially when I know that I'd ruin my engine over time, I know I will get worse performance and MPG, and I know that I'd only be saving a few bucks. Doesn't make sense to me.

I use 87 on Loaners. I only use 91 on my ride. The Dealership told me they fill their cars with 87 to save $. They don't care because customers abuse the loaners.

That's why I feel bad for people that buy "DEMO" or loaner cars.
