Well since there isn’t any Top Tier stations around here I just go to Hess. Never had a problem… My old Z24 had 150k on it (parents bought it new) and was always filled at the same Hess station, no problems. I’ll stick with Hess. Sunoco is good too but they are a bit more expensive. Mobil is a joke in terms of pricing.

i fill up where ever in anything, usually hess/mobil cause they are close to my house, hess if i don’t want to drive at extreme angles, but i have never noticed a difference no matter what gas i use.

all the gas around the area is THE SAME!!.. ask any of the guys that deliver fuel for a living and they will tell you all of them get there tucks filled at the port by the same supply, so everyone moaning and bitching about it has no idea how the delivery system really works,

it’s more important who owns the station and who fills it up. thats the key to making sure the gas is clean

QFT :+1

Brew is spot on, all gas comes off the same boat, gets mixed in the port of Albany per instructions of the stations (whether they want 89 or 91), deliver it to the station and then it’s up to the station to make sure that the tanks don’t have water, the filters are clean and everything else is tip top.

I usually just base my buying gas on how nice the station is. If you care enough to maintain and keep your pumps/station clean, you probably maintain your tanks well.

hopefully DJ can come on here and post a picture of a line of trucks all from different company’s (mobile/sunoco/hess) all getting filled off the same freakin line, you guys and your “nah this shit is way better” b/s need to actually do some real research and find out how gas gets from point A to point B to in your tank
