It's Shell most of the time for me....($1.26/gallon now )

At every oil change, I drive a little farther for Chevron, since I use their Techron Fuel Injector Cleaner at every oil change, it's best to use it with compatible gas(chevron.)

There's some website that rated the quality of gas at different gas stations. I can't seem to remember it now, but here's how they ranked them:
1.Chevron
2.Texaco
3.Shell

It's Shell for me, just because the other two are usually more moolah!!

99% of the time I fill up at Speedway. They tend to be the ceapest by 5-10 cents. I also save 3 cents on the dollar by using their gas card.

Had my PT GT almost 3 weeks now. Dealer filled it with 87 octane when purchased. :-(
I put 91 in it my first time and could tell a difference within a few miles. More pep. The next fill I tried 89 octane. Couldn't tell a difference from the 91 octane.
Hot weather is when knocking and pinging get bad so 91 octane may be needed in summer. Till then I will use 89.
As far as brand goes, whatever works out best for you.
