So that leaves Chevron and Shell..
"If I filled my gas tank with half Shell with V-Power, and the other half with Chevron with Techron gas.. does that mean that my gas is VTEC?"

Says who??
What makes you think if they dont get business they will lower it??
Gas will continue to go up and they know we need it, simple as that!

Guess the guy doesn't know that gas station's profit margin on gas is razor thin. Most of the cost comes from taxes. Want cheaper gas, petition the government.

Only true non-ethanol gas right now is Chevron 94, I believe.
(Heard rumors that Petro 94 = no ethanol, not sure about that though)

pt roberts or stateside. i save roughly $25 each 90L tank for my premium only heavy drinker v8 getting gas across the boarder. minus $5 for gas to go there and back im still ahead $20. average savings $0.30 per liter. on a good day, $0.45+ per liter. it has become a sunday ritual. its a pretty nice cruise when the weather is good.
