14 gallons.... HA!
I know you live in Georgia and I know you get 93 octane. But you having 93 rather than 91 as your standard premium octane has little to do with the price. The reason why I brought up the numbers was because generally speaking, California tends to have the highest gas prices out of the 48 contiguous states.
I agree with you that usually Cali has more expensive gas, but as of recently that is not the case. Even if its not the octane thats accounting for the prices, GA is usually not anywhere close to the top of the list for highest gas prices.
Im in Alabama and its $4 for regular right now, if you can even get that, stations run out daily. And there is no premium fuel to be had anywhere. Im running 87 in my evo right now due to no choice. Hurricane 1...Alabama 0.
ya man, Im right there with you. I went to 10 gas stations yesterday and didnt find any gas. Finally found a station this morning and fortunately they had premium. Hurricane hurt us too and it didnt even hit GA.
i got lucky i found premium too the other day. Took me 20min to find a gas station that had premium. I dont think i would put 87 in my car unless it was the absolute last resort. I could go a couple weeks without driving my car.
I let the car sit for about 5 days hoping the fuel would go back to normal, but finally I had to do something. The problems with just getting regular arent even going away, and literally NO ONE in this area has premium fuel as far as I can tell. They just arent getting it. I havent really noticed a difference in the way it drives, however I have a pretty long slow commute and I try to save gas anyways.
I believe the problems come when you are really getting into it. You should be fine as long as your not boostin all over town. Ive heard of people using 87 and just cruising and being just fine, obviously I would only do it as last resort though. I hope gas problems dont get any worse over here.
I remember reading an article in the paper that people in Texas where complaining of high gas prices after the hurricane, the price in the picture was $3.89 for premium. Now, I am glad I didn't have to deal with a hurricane, but we haven't seen prices that low in over a year I bet.
