OK. But I’ll still use it. I am one to use better grade fuels, so this may be an issue with low grade fuel at these places. I only run 87 in my company minivan b/c they will charge me for the difference if I use 93.

If one’s car is in top shape, it shouldn’t matter what gas is run. If one’s car is repaired with sub standard parts, or is poorly maintained, I would agree with your statements.
