Have you modded the Montero since you got it?Originally Posted by 1439/2000

I'm just laughing at someone I know who bought a car that requires premium and couldn't afford it before all this gas bs got bad. Lol

lol ya thats funny... i paid 4.50 this morning at the only place that had it.Originally Posted by Revmaynard
idk why they dont have premium...i mean most people use regular, logically they should be out of regular right?
I asked a girl if i could buy her a drink, she said I have a boyfriend, so I said, well i have a goldfish, she said what? I replied, oh I'm sorry I thought we were talking about shit that doesnt matter.
Actually, most cars these days run on premium fuel only.Originally Posted by SammyPain
Luckily enough my Mustang, despite being an 08, has 40 year old technology in it so it can run on swamp gas! Hooray!
SOME stations will say they are out of all grades except premium, jack up the price sky high, and sell it first.Originally Posted by SammyPain
Stations don't keep as much premium in the tanks and they are smaller tanks IIRC. So if there is a rush on the fuel it will go out.Originally Posted by SammyPain
More cars on the road take regular so if regular is out it is going to get filled up first.

I have no choice but to use premium, or at least that's what the manufacturer suggests...
It's the same way in SC right now...Most stations are out of every grade of gas and it sucks....
no 93 for me![]()
-Super cool .gif TO UNBAN JITB, JM, Buttons AND NEMISIS here-
That's why i'm keeping the car that requires premium in the garage for a few. I've got 2 others that I'm working with that can run on 87 and 89 so i'll be good.
...Or WILL I!!!>?????
Leisa and S. 4 Life NM?
I searched around forever around Lawreceville.
All only have regular.
I had to drive all the way to the Shell on Satellite and Steve Reynolds.
They had Premium for $4.29. (while a Texaco had premium for $4.79)
if you need gas in lawrenceville you need to go to sugarloaf/29/five forks area...Originally Posted by BB1_Luda
racetrac, murphys, ingles, texaco, shell, citco, qt, bp, cheveron... someone always has gas... murphys at walmart has had the cheapest and been full since sh!t went down. i want to say there were at 3.75 today. now finding 93 is a whole other situation![]()
Yea that's the thing. 93 is hard to find.Originally Posted by admin
I can't use anything else.![]()
QT off sugarloaf and 316 was out last night, but this morning they were full of everything. I'm driving benz today, but I am filling the WRX up after work. Hopefully something is left there!Originally Posted by BB1_Luda
wow... hope they get their sh!t straight before my trip down there.. I use 93 in my hatch, but I will use 87 as a last ditch. . I find it odd how they are having this problem w/ fuel. .
Hwy 92 from Alpharetta Hwy to I-575, not one gas station had fuel. There was a QT near my house that had regular and it was a nightmare getting in there. I got a quick splash and left in a hurry. It's crazy.
Amen I've been driving on E for like three days yesterday I had to take some out of one of my other cars just to go to work and I'm still on mother freakig EEEEEEE!!!!!! Their are no gas stations around here with gas, sat in line today for 20 min. and when I was the second from last car to the pump it ran the F outOriginally Posted by Ran
... This $hit sucks..... And I can't drive my SI cause I haven't seen 93 in about two weeks no joke....

gas prices has more than tripled since bush became president. I blame everything on him.

i wish my car could take 87... the 04's with the ls1's can be programmed with an 87 octane map that just takes alot of timing out of it, but my car wont accept that![]()
I prefer to use 93 after working at a gas station and learning of the mix and match crap they do w/ the lower grades... plus using a higher grade burns cleaner... not doing it for a performance end...
all i find is 93 octane in flowery branch/gainesville/oakwood thank god i use 93

Glad I'm not in the camaro for now.
yeah im premium only and i cant find it ANYWHERE. stopped at 6 stations last night and 6 on the way to class this morning... i may not be able to go to work tomorrow.
my friend woke up around 5:30am just so he can get to the gas station around 6:30 and the gas truck gets there at 7:00am and they are most of the time out by 9:00am
