10 cents x 18 gallons (usual fillup amount) = $1.80

who cares...

This guy's numbers are gonna add up pretty quickly at 110 miles a day. That's a fill up every 3 or 4 days assuming he's staying out of the fun pedal and maximizing his fuel economy. Assuming two fillups a week (which is what my fun pedal usage would require), he'd save $187.20 a year by using 91 vs. 93.
Certainly not a make or break it figure, but if 91 works just fine, why not pocket the savings?

if 91 works fine and $187.20 is a big deal, i suppose that is a good option~...

but that could also mean $187.20 less consumed tacos and burgers which would be cheaper considering medical visits and bills. lol

are you REALLY saving money by doing this overall? i dont know... i doubt it. people think they're saving nickles and dimes here and there but still in the red often do to worse habits.
