I agree/disagree. If your in a rural area then yes this makes a difference. If your in a city then no because the volume and frequent of getting the tanks changed and such is done on an much more frequent basis. My grandfather lived on a farm he had the oil/gas guy come out and he had gas for the cars, diesel for the farm equipment and oil for the heater it'll it was replaced early 80s.
My main point for asking is that it dosent matter what brand as long as it is a major brand. Each brand has a different set of cleaners additives that are added at the refineries. The tankers pull up base gas is loaded then the magic juice lol is added to that tanker that has the additives in it.
Just like the oil debate as long as you use the correct weight for your application and conditions each major brand has its own additives ect that improves this or that. Don't put in off brand products.
I have seen the same tanker fill up smiths gas station that fills up sams club gas station. Since Rebel was bought out by Arco out in my area. Now Arco uses Sunoco 100 octane race fuel. So that means they use the base Sunoco fuel and ether use the same additives or just a little different to the rest of there gas.
I have been using at one point 91 from chevron and 100 from Arco to make my 93. Now I save the trip and put in just the Arco and I haven't seen any difference in not putting in the chevron. Shell never use as it is substanccly more expensive and never saw a difference in performance.
