I'm with you Max, I buy gas based on price. ALL of my cars have over
100,000 miles, the highest mileage car has 230,000 miles. I've driven
millions of miles in many cars with the cheapest gas I can buy. I would
caution that if your car is "pinking" or 'pinging' whichever you prefer,
you need to increase the octane or fix the car.
