The big question to me is can the extra gas mileage you get with premium cover the extra cost of that fuel.

Quote from the article: "According to Petro-Canada, "There is generally only a small difference in gas mileage, about 2 per cent, between premium and regular gasoline. This difference tends to favour premium gasoline.""

And the price difference of 87 and 91 for Sunoco is 11.6% (94.5 VS 105.5 per litre as I fuelled up last night). So you can do the math to see if 11.6% of extra cost giving you 2% more mileage is acceptable for you or not.
