WIFE: How come you put that cheap gas in my car, then use the expensive stuff in your truck and motorcycle?
ME: The BOOKS says use 87 in your car...my truck calls for 89, the H.D. gets the highest the pump has to offer.
WIFE: You're high maintenance :B
OP: Just use what the MFG recommends. No need for "better" fuel, if it isn't going to provide additional benefits. My 89 octange was 17 cents more per gallon than the 87 (at pump TODAY).....why pay it if you don't have to.
