Nothing special, I've got a toneau cover K&N replacement filter and that's
it. I normally try to get 87 octane at Sunoco or BP. I try to stay away
from Sheetz or other gas stations because I'm never had good results with
any vechile I've ever owned. I drive about 15 miles to work on back roads
and about 10 miles home on the turnpike.
