In the LA area, a couple of years ago, a news station did a story. Seems
all the tanker trucks from the different oil companies were filling up at
the same depot. The news reporter learned that the gas is all the same
except for the additive. As the tankers were being filled the appropriate
additive was being blended into the truck.

I use Shell in my Dak. Not because I fine it better, but because my job
pays for my gas and gave me a Shell card. The gas seems fine. My wife uses
Arco for her car. Generally the lowest cost per gallon fuel and there is
one just down the street from our home. Here again, car runs fine.
