Pretty sure I remember talking to a salesman a while back about the difference between the 225 and the 250. The salesman pretty much told me that a lot of people opt for the 225 cuz it only needed the 87 and not the higher octane like the 250. Maybe I'm mistaken.

Yeah, I remember reading it specifically in the manual. IIRC, my dad was putting 87 or 89 in ours and asked me if that was right...so, not being sure, I checked the manual and am pretty certain it recommended 93 but 89 is acceptable as well.
