    I just calculated how many dollar/gallon it cost around here and that's around $9,30 a gallon :(

    We do get 95 octane as the lowest octane fuel though, and 98 doesn't cost that much extra :mrgreen:
    our octane numbers are AKI: AKI= (RON+MON)/2, not just those silly RON numbers.

    MON matters, especially under leaner load conditons.

    when i was driving down to Dahlonega, GA i wanted to wait until SC to fill up for chap gas so when I was about 150mi into NC on 1/4 tank i just filled it to half way. I didnt realize that my GPS was going to send me west through NC and make me skip SC. At 1am in the mountains NOTHING is open, not even a hotel to ask where i could get gas. 30 miles into my dummy light and a lot of freaking out later i found an Ingles that would take a card and i filled up on that stuff.

    pretty scary to be in the mountians that late in the rain driving a leaky vert with no fuel and no AAA.

    Jeremy, thanks for the offer but AAA saved the day again. Also, thanks for calling kingston.
    No problem.

    Here to help if you need it.

    i routinely get 35+ miles after the gas light goes on in my car, and I just hit 370 miles in this tank, and the light came on maybe 3 miles ago....m42 FTW

    I have almost achieved 400 miles on one tank

    I feel this is pretty good for driving an e30, which doesn't necessarily encourage hypermiling

    Hate how the needle moves all over the place... haven't run out yet tho! I do full fill ups when gas is climbing and $20 fill ups when gas is falling, makes sense to me anyway lol

    lol it costs me $50 a week for 30lt for the E30. That is about 8 gallons. I usually fill up at the 20lt mark cos after that the guage is all over the place lol.

    True, but it doesn't hurt as much to throw $30 in at a time than $60 all at once.
    but you're spending $60 all the same, so it's only lying to yourself. and you're wasting the time gassing up twice.

    no one got my f&f reference. :(

    I don't notice it at all.

    With gas at 4 bucks a gallon and climbing I'm not driving anywhere anymore.
    I'm thinking of buying another e30 so I can use shitty gas instead of 93 the M3 and 330 take.
