in my country the high octane fuel cost only 4% extra
here in italy we have 95, 98 and 100 octane fuel.
98 do not cost too much, only 4% more, but i'm experiencing 10% and more fuel saving.
100 octane is too much expensive, and it's used only by some rich people on ferrari

in the USA how much octane u have?

We have a different rating method. Our 87, 89 and 91 octane ratings at the pump are comparable to your 95, 98 & 100.

2 mpg improvement doesnt weight out the extra cost you get on a higher octane fuel. does it?

buy higher octane, believing mileage will increase. trying to prove it now driving more conscientiously. mileage increases. kind of a self fulfilling prophecy. not due to higher octane. no scientific explanation will explain higher mpg's from higher octane.

now im going to go.....on myself......as punishment for getting sucked into this ludicrous discussion.
