all this talk about saving a dollar here or there on gas by magical combinations of cards, points, particular days, particular fill up places makes me chuckle... if it works for you great. i've got better things to do with my time and can save that much so easily in other ways that don't take any effort.

how many miles a year do you drive?
and you gush over v12's endlessly, so why don't you get one?
that 760 is very nice i'm sure, but a ton of money to own, run, maintain. an i7 is faster i'm sure, quieter, smoother, and costs FAR less to own, run, maintain.
the v12 is obsolete.

I think they deliberately made the i7 not quite as fast as the V8. I haven’t driven them all yet, but I will soon. The 7 has grown on me a lot.
My issue with the i7 is still range. Just not quite sure I’m ready to transition yet

I think you mean behind the 8. The current 7-series doesn’t have a V12.
It drives wonderfully that’s for sure. BMW really nailed it from a dynamics and luxury perspective. The styling has only gotten uglier in my eyes though. Come facelift time when the i7 gets upgraded batteries and hopefully a redone fascia you might have an all around winner.
