Mid grade also. I'm with puck, up at altitude we get lower octane across the board. Mid grade here is 87.

Always 93... I always check to make sure it's 93 and not 91 labeled as 'premium' and is the same price as 93 at other stations.

OTOH, I have considered trying E85... apparently it's a lot higher octane and will really wake a vehicle up.

It will...and you'll get half the mpg of gasoline, too. ;)
