Because of higher compression. Octane rating is nothing more than the
anti-knock index. High octane fuel burns slower than lower octane fuel. Our
trucks don't have high enough compression to run jet fuel.

A friend used to be a SR-71 wrench. JP-7 and other jet fuels are basically
kerosene (diesel fuel).
