Just filled up the tank with 91 octane premium fuel - Toyota Yaris Forums

Idahotom · 03-21-2011, 11:23 PM

Speaking of diesel: I was at a gas station in SE Idaho the other day, fueling up my 22 ton boom truck. I was astonded to see they were offering straight diesel ($3.86 per gallon), off road/non dyed (and you do NOT want to get caught with that in your tank) for $3.64, and lastly bio diesel for $3.86. The owner of the station must be a diesel freak! As everywhere else was elling diesel for $3.97 or higher, I was a happy camper.

A few days earlier, while also fueling the boom truck, I struck up a conversation with a VW Jetta driver: 47 to 49 MPG, and he had over, well over, 200,000 miles on it. Without even doing the math (in general higher priced diesel V. gasoline) the Yaris compares well...( in the low 40's, my own results) plus I trust Toyota more then VW!
