Premium vs regular costs in your area

In CA, average .20-24 per gallon from 87 to 91. Yes, 91 is the best we have...

In Atlanta it's anywhere from .40 to .80 difference. It really depends on what part of town you are in. In the city it's always .70 to .80, in the burbs it runs the gambit.

in CA all we get is 91...as a kid back east we could go to Sunoco and dial in whatever octane we wanted, think it went up to 100, do they still have Sunoco gas back east?

We still have Sunoco in Mich. When l was a kid in the 60s/70s Sunoco had the dial your octane on the pump too!
190 octane =economy
200 = reg.
210, 220, 230 = mid.
240,= prem.
250, 260 high octane & it was blue & smelled great
