re: Are you loyal to a gasoline brand?

Not brand related but how come at Sam's and Costco people refuse to use the other lane just because there gas tank is not on that side? The gas hoses have the ability to stretch across your vehicle! Just blows my mind people will line up 5 cars deep while the other side has no cars in line.

Shhhh. Don't let the secret out!

No.

But I do refuse to purchase gasoline, or anything else, from Citco stations.

Since Costco opened-----whatever brand they sell.

Before Costco, the Shell or Texaco near the house depending on what side of the street I was driving on.

If you know anything about the gasoline blending business...no, you shouldn't be loyal to any one brand. Buy cheap and from a station that has high tank turns (busy).

People saying they only buy from fill in the blank because they have stock in said company...super majors haven't owned stations in decades, you're not helping your dividend in any meaningful way.

If you would like to believe that Techron is better than whatever XOM is putting in your gasoline, go right ahead...all gasoline is required to have a detergent additive, branded or unbranded.

Stick your gas cap under the handle if you still have one.

Usually Sam’s Club

Hell no. I am loyal to the lowest price in the area, except for the cigarette store loss leaders.

Shell VPower. My cars have never had issues and run like a top.

And yes, the cars I own require Premium.

I shop local: Billups

I always use Shell in my vehicles. I've had good luck with those vehicles and I use the fuel rewards. Every now and again it'll have promos where you save 25 cents on a gallon for filling up on a Thursday or buying 2 red bulls would save you 50 cents on the gallon.I once went ate at a participating restaurant and saved like $1.50 on a gallon of gas.
