Re: which brand of gas does your car run best on?
well with my truck having well over 260,000 miles on it, i get alot of pinging when i use WAWA(which is the cheapest usually). i did switch my oil to the valvoline high mileage oil when i got the truck almost 2 years ago, i did notice a improvement in ideling, running and oil consumption.
i just want to know personal experience not conjecture. thanks Brandini. i have noticed a major change in how my truck runs on shell compaired to wawa. no pinging better gas mileage. which not have a thing to do with Additives, but maybe how they make their gas?
whats this ScanGauge?

I believe we were asking for experience not conjecture.
I use Shell 99% of the time because it just runs better, I get better mpg and performance (I have a ScanGauge and it's confirmed with Shell and Exxon).
I highly recommend a ScanGauge for testing what gas is better in YOUR car and what grade is better as well. I cold weather I got worse mpg wit 89. In the summer wihen the AC is on, 89 keeps me pulling up hills without a downshift and I don't ping at all.

I run whatever's closest to me when I need gas in all of my vehicles. Regular in the truck and premium in the Z06, never notice any kind of difference in performance ever.
