where do you fill up? and what octane do you use?

hello guys, i have been getting horrible gas mileage (just like all of us) and I wanted to know what octane do you use?

here in Ca we have 88, 89, 91

Thanks!

I fill up at Exxon and was using 93 octane (we don't have 91 around here), but switched to 89 a couple months ago due to the high gas prices. I have seen no difference in the car since the switch. I have averaged 22.8 mpg over the life of the car (almost 60,000 miles). Mostly highway miles, of course.

"I will be the first to let you know, you are going to get flamed for not searching. This topic is brought up once a week, so just search and you will find just about everyone's opinion on this subject.
