Is high test really necessary?

My Z runs on eggnog. No knocking or pinging here. I do add rum for a nice boost though.

Some cars (like the Fusion with EcoBoost) can run on either, but as it states in the fine print, "the horsepower stated is only achieved with Premium fuel."

The engine is also designed to use both, but to get the performance, Premium should be used.

My Frontier also, but I find running premium I get better mileage, so for the extra couple bucks that's what goes in.
