Right now I fill up at the NEX gas stations and I believe they get their gas from Tesoro...
I'm using 92 octane and I get about 280 miles per tank...on a amazingly good day I'll get around 300 mile...but that's been a while...

I usually go to Chevron to get gas when I'm out late and the NEX station is closed, but after reading what you guys said...next time I might try some of that V Powah

I was thinking of switching to shell v-power too, seems like the proof is in the pudding there.

damn,. i drive a 2.5i and i'm getting about 250 miles full tank. Thats like around 18 mpg for me. wtf? Shoot, I didn't try the shell 92 vpower but i will after this tank. Hopefully that will save me some money i guess.

I'll let you folks know what i got w/ my 2.5i after using up my tank, which is filled w/ chevron 92 octane.
