Its a sport 2017 with 5000 miles for 25,200 out the door

Strange, the other vehicles that I have take Costco 91 gas without fuss. Oh well, the Z gets what the Z wants:icon14:

this makes me happy i'm in PA where 91 is our middle grade and 93 is everywhere.

also, i just thought about this and in the 8 years i've had the Z i've never put stabilizer in it for winter storage and never had any issues. just typically weak/dead battery thats it.

17 gas stations in my city. Only 1 sells 93. Closest e85 station is 45 minutes away. Another reason to never come to CNY. I do add stabil to the car right before storage though. For the $8 a bottle, it's a good safe of mind type of thing for me.

i am pretty sure that PA has been 100% 93 as long as i can ever remember. i mean i'm only 32 so been driving for 16 years. wow just realized im at 50% of my life i've been (legally) driving.

also, E85 is coming full circle here and much more readily available. got a station about 1.3 miles from my house with it.

Nice, closest place to me is either Exton or King of Prussia (30-40 minutes). Makes going without E85 an easy choice.

93 octane is rare in socal. Not sure why, we have tons of refineries here. Youd also think gas would be cheaper... just paid 4.19 a gallon cash rate, and that was the cheapest shell station in my area by about .15/gal..... oh well, seb tuned me for 91 Shell, so I'm ok with that.

$3.49 for 93 here. After filling the Fits tank all Winter the z made me look at the numbers going up and up on the screen lol.

It’s all tax that makes gas expensive.

I think I paid $2.69 for 89, which is the mid grade I ran in the truck. All the forums say that 5.3L GM V8 likes 89 better than 87. 93, which I run in the G and the wife’s Lexus, is $2.79ish.

Haven’t decided what grade I’m going to run in the new truck. Need to do some googling.

Yup, taxes. But you would think that the cost to transport the fuel to different states (vs just a few miles to the stations from our refineries) would cost more than what we would pay in taxes, yet alot of states pay close to if not less than a dollar/gal than we do.. :shakes head:

Move? From Toronto? Never. I love the overpriced housing, crappy politicians, pot hole filled streets and of course our vibrant SJW scene. :icon17:

If you want to freak out. Get a diesel and do some heavy towing. Stopping ever 200 to 250 miles for fuel. 75 bucks a pop. That adds up quick. You will learn to keep you foot out of it or else pay the fuel man. LOL
