Hmmm, I wonder if the gas at Safeway is top tier? I hate to give up all those frequent flyer miles.

Yep.
BTW, the only Top Tier companies common in my area are BP and Shell. Shell gives me a 5% discount when I use their Citi Mastercard to buy gas, vs 1% for BP. And the Shell pump prices are much lower. Overall, Shell Premium is 34 cents per gallon cheaper than BP!

Default chevron

Some years ago I owned a BMW 535iS. The BMW folks swore by Chevron, and I've "mostly" been using it since.. I have an 03 Jeep TJ that I don't run on chevron... but the vette gets the good stuff.

Best,
