BEST GAS BRAND!

Around $1.09 per litre Cdn or $4.38 per U.S. Gallon for Premium in Calgary, Alberta, Canada - place were the damn stuff comes from!! Think we'd get a small break? Been as high as $1.18 per litre.

BEST GAS BRAND!

All the gas is the same, up to a point. What leaves the refinery is is either Conventional Regular or Premium or Reformulated Regular or Premium. The octane for each depends on the market it will be sold in. RVP (volatility) is adjusted as the seasons change, again by market.

Where the brands differ lies in the additive package that is added at the wholesaler's terminal prior to delivery to the stations. Now Shell gas and Chevron gas are different.

From there its mostly personal preference.

Actually Doc, you did a good thing. I think we all need to vent about things like this, especially when it hits us not only in the wallet, but in our ability to ride as much as we would like.

Thanks Doc.
