"Cost" of Octane... ???
Has anyone else noticed that the price difference between "regular" (87 Octane) and "premium" (93 Octane) has been steadily growing? Before the oil price shock, the delta was about $0.20-0.22/gal. Now its up to $0.34/gal and seems to be rising. As most of the current 'non-econobox' cars (and trucks?) take premium, I think something smells, and its not Limburger cheese...
