I'm not trying to start yet another lengthy thread but I have always
believed that REGULAR grade gas was, for some time, almost identical. I
don't think it is just an urban legend when one hears of various different
tankers pulling up to the *same* refinery. Now, for the PREMIUM blends,
maybe not. Consumer Reports magazine has done a fair amount of research on
this topic. The real scam is automotive oil. Go by the symbols and
ratings, rather than brand.

: Ask the attendant inside for the rating.
: I don't find any problem with Superstore gas.
: But try Petro Canada gasoline, they have fuel additives which
: cleans your fuel injectors. You can also apply for a points card,
: where you get free stuff if you accumulated enough points.
