We only have 1 BP, 1 Admiral, 1 Marathon, and 2 Citco. I use which ever one I'm closest to at the time I think about it.

Makes no differance to me mostly. SHell and Texaco are more convienent on my way to work or at home. But as long as a station is not run down, I'd use it. I don't trust run down looking stations because the tanks might be the same.

I like the Shell V-Power for the track, and Citgo for the daily driving. Either way 93 octane.

I like mine fresh.

so i buy the cheapest. i would hope that since the truck has to fill their tanks everyday that it would be the freshist, plus they got free coffee. if i wanted high octane, i would add it from a bottle. i don't think they sell as much premium so it could be stale.

Whatever is cheapest and not crowded. I hate waiting in line to get gas. I guess I still am emotionally scarred from the oil embargo in the mid-70's. The station I frequent the most is Gulf.

BP or Shell for my HHR. In St. Louis their premium is 93, others in the area are 91. For all of my other vehicles I use QT.

I used to be a whore with gas, buy anything anywhere . . . but the car ALWAYS had fuel injector problems . . my Mom had the exact same car and ran ONLY Mobil . . . no issues . . .

Now I am loyal to only Mobil, BP or Shell. . . . haven't had a FI problem since.

My diesel, I am kind of stuck with where ever I can find deisel . . .

95% time QT..... then Shell.... Have always had good luck at the QT

long time ago use to have union76, mobil, gulf, and sinclair are gone in our area.
Our BP has been in trouble 4 times this year for cheating you...... get you for a dollar or two per tank..... and even the pump had ran your card through twice..... so i dont even go in there.....
