Default Re: Bigger gas tank.

Further experimentation with 91 Octane: boosts mileage just about 12% when I'm not towing, (16 MPG with 87, 18 MPG with 91) about 20% when towing (8.2 to 10 MPG).

Cost here is about 10% more ($1.35 per liter vs $1.22) so it is worth it even if it's just longer between fill-ups.

Try it you'll like it! If you only get an extra 50 miles (430 instead of 380) it's almost as good as a 5 gallon bigger gas tank!
