No more Sunoco Ultra 94 ????
I filled up my car yesterday at Sunoco and found that Ultra 94 is now Ultra 93. 
Not only that, but they now have 2 mid grades, 89 and 91.
Is this happening just in Pa?

94 hasn't been available in NY for at least a year or two now.

We still have Sunoco 94 up here, but last year they changed the rest of their octane lineup. They used to sell 87, 89.5, 92 and 94, but now they sell 87, 89, 91 and 94. I suspect they'll drop our 94 down a point or two pretty soon.
I don't use Sunoco very often anyhow, and I had my car dyno tuned while running Esso 91, and get zero knock retard with that, at least in cooler temps. So the only time I run Sunoco 94 is when I go to the dragstrip in warmer weather.

93 is the best I can get here in the south, but it's everywhere.

Chevron 93 with Techron. It soon won't matter 'cause we'll be using E85.
