Anyone else putting in 89 due to gas prices?

When a gallon was $1.50, 10c difference (Plus and Premium grades) is about 6.7%. Now a gallon is $3.20, 10c difference is only 3%.

So it isn't that much to save 10c/gallon, compare to what we pay to fill up. But if your cars somehow get better mileage with Plus grade, then go with the Plus.

It wouldn't hurt your engine if you don't rev too high (at which ignition timing becomes important).
