91octane in sasaktoon is around $1.23/L. My manual says the 2.4 and 2.0 SS's need to run 91octane. is this true? i have been running 91 since i got it, and would rather not if i don't need to be.

If the price goes to $3 a liter tommorow we will still buy it.

I gave up looking at the numbers at the pump anymore.

Makes me feel much better. i just pump till its full. then go in and pay.

x2, still pisses me off however that we have so much damn oil and natural gas and we still pay out the ******* for it... i mean sure theres conflict in the middle east but Alberta produces a hell of alot of oil and gas as well yet we still pay alot, its stupid... end rant..

I check out the prices all the time, everywhere I drive.... if I can save $0.15-$0.25 cents a gallon, buy getting gas in the burbs instead of the city....I'm doing it! $0.20 x 12 gallons = $2.40 per tank x 6 tanks per month = $14.40 per month x 12 months = $172 per year, if I only do 6 tanks a month (I probably do more). $172 is almost 2 tires or a very nice dinner or a few more $$$ towards modding or the new tires fund (like I'm putting the extra $$ aside ).

I stopped bitchin about it... I love to drive, I love my car and I ain't drivin' no PRIUS
