What gas stations do you particularly go to? Anyone ever use costcos gas? I don't have to use premium now so just curious where people go.

Costco is Top Tier, now. Also, why do you feel you no longer need premium?

Oh, planning on buying a Vette, then.

Enjoy both the looking and then the owning.

Shell is the most convenient Top Tier gas for me as well. Especially with 20 cents off for premium on Tuesdays along with Giant Food discounts.

Costco - Top Tier and lowest price in their local area. I do a lot of long road trips and Costco is in most states now. Also they are generally near interstates. Good place for pit stop for the car and me. Next choice is Shell.

I do my best to keep the inside of my engines clean. I try to stay away from fuel that isn’t top tier unless I absolutely don’t have a choice. I also start using Regane or Techron once I reach 15,000 miles or so.

I use Costco premium fuel in my Corvette. It is a top tier gasoline and is less expensive than any other station around here.

That's the way Shell in MD works.

I don't know if Shells in other states work that way or not.
