correct me if i'm wrong but gas stations are using the 10% ethonal and mixing it with the cheapest fuel around? i'm not sure but the cheapest gas station i can find around here has that sign posted " contains 10% ethonal " ....and its the only station i know of that has that...

We here in Missouri have had 10% Eth in our gas for a long time now. I never really looked to see if our 93oct has it or not, but I am betting it does. Basically by using the 10% eth in the gas, they are essentially thinning out regular gasoline in the hopes it last longer. It certainly does not provide any extra power or performance.
