it realy doesn't matter much as most of it comes from the same refinerys and often from the same tanks to be shiped to the stores.
I would pay more attention to who is shiping the fuel for them. some noname stores use noname trucking co. and then you have a higher chance of water in the fuel richt after a truck delivers.
(sorry I used to work for Dupont)

I get whatever is in the vehicle I siphon the fuel from... I usually pick the really, really big SUVs, what's a few gallons to them??? ;D

You guys are cracking me up! ;D
I don't know which was funnier- stealing gas from the big SUV's or the "pop-rock" comment.
I do know that I was diving with some freedivers from the UK earlier this year and they are paying over $4.50 A GALLON, so we don't have too much to complain about- yet.

I think high fuel prices are a good thing. Just look at the effect it has had on SUV sales. At $4.50 a gallon, people that done need to drive might actually start using public transportation.

I made this modification to by Blazer a month ago:
(1) Took the electronics head off my Inspiration and mounted it to the engine;
(2) Ran short hose from the head to the engine air intake, then ran extra looooog hose from the exhaust back to the head;
(3) Packed the muffler full of scrubber medium;
(4) Ran handsets into instrument panel... the only draw back is I have to average my speed per voting logic.
Don't know why it works, but I get 100 miles per gallon, 75 mph when I crack the 02 cylinder (acts as supercharger). And running trimix through it gives it that oh-so-popular 'high-performance' engine whine!
I need to change the scrubber every 100 miles, though. :'(
The yellow shell acts as a spare wheel cover. I stitched the harness to the seat, now acts as a three point safety harness. The counter lungs are rigged as additional airbags.
It is now the Reblazer. See you around! ;D

Well Chris, did you get the answer(s) your where looking for? I thought not.
I try to find the least expensive place (that looks decent, as per MNLakeDiver said). Oh, and they have to carry 'Slim-Jim, Tabasco' sticks.

Not really, no... looks like Amoco/BP and Holiday tied at 3 votes each with Kwik Trip the only other one with a vote coming in at 1.
Makes sense to me... I was just wondering if some stations had better additives, etc than others.
