seems you all were born on the wrong continent.

 

I want a Garage with these four cars pretty please!

 

Gassed the truck up yesterday. Premium here, or at least at this Chevron, is 70 cents more per gallon than regular, but only 10 cents more than mid-grade.

 

Geeez those prices are steep. Regular is $2.45. $3.15 for cheap premium.

$2.66 for regular $3.55 for premium at Exxon/Shell

 

Any cars require mid grade gas? All i see folks use is regular or ultra super duper premium.

 

No, cars either require 87 or 91, a few require 93 (Porsches).

Premium is about $1.20 more a gallon here

 

My car is a dirty mess but it only gets premium gas aka "the good stuff"

Maybe I'm feeling guilty and compensating. Lol

 

Remember growing up mom used to have a 321i and I remember pumping 89 octane in it. And I remember she used to tell me I didn’t need to go into garage to start the car and let it warm up. I used to like starting and warming up previous cars 😆

 

Technically no, at least not any car I've ever seen. I have seen some that recommend higher grade than regular for "optimal performance" but that's it.

I have personally experienced a few cars that spec 87 but pull timing. When the same cars are fed mid grade all is well, I've also owned one car that specced 91 but was fine on 89 somehow

 

Well I was inspired by Striker to go to Taco Bell last night and I ended up spending over $1,000 there.





The drive thru is so tight it’s like you have to make the turn just right to not scrape the front bumper on a curb or curb the wheel.

Well I didn’t make the turn and curbed my drivers rear wheel. The wheel itself isn’t too expensive at $850 but shipping is $250 since it can’t be shipped sea freight like when you buy four. That is the most I’ve spent on fast food. Needless to say, I didn’t enjoy my food much.

 

Ugh! That sucks.

 

What a nightmare, patgilm. Absolutely infuriating when that happens. You can't get the rim repaired???

 

Ugh, maximum cringe.
I'm sorry friend, that sucks.

I'm feeling you pain looking at the pics.

 

Ouch! I'm sorry to see that. I feel your pain too. Good luck on the repair or replacement.

 

I did the same thing to one of the Yukon's wheels, it looks basically identical to that pic. I'm gonna have it fixed.

Re: gas, I lost my Sam's card and have been using 89 gas for the time being.... 87 slows the LS430 down, but 89 I can't tell a difference.
