Toyota Gasoline?, Preference Options

[JoKeRkId613]

I'm about to supercharge my car and know that I will be using premium grade fuel. Is there any Toyota-preferred gasoline company? I did a search and it seems Ferrari recommends Shell. I'm no Ferrari, but I usually fill up at BP (Amoco). I remember seeing a list a while back with a few gas companies that are better for Toyota engines because of something in the gas. Does anyone have that? or does anyone if there is a recommended company by Toyota?

I know this won't make a noticeable difference, but figured since gas prices are pretty mcuh the same around town I might as well fill up at the best place.

Thanks.

People let this sh!t die unless you have something productive to add. Gas is gas (minus octane ratings of course)... additives is what makes the gas different... but do they affect performance? NO! The additives are specifically designed to maintain the fuel system, ie: less fuel filter clogs, etc... but that does NOT affect how the engine burns the gas. Shell is NOT a miracle fuel that makes a car significantly better. That's just ignorant. GAS is GAS. If your car has trouble from pumping some cheap indy fuel... well... it's either placebo or your car has problems.

Something you all might want to know... indy gas stations across the united states buy whatever is cheapest. One week they might have Shell, one week exxon, one week BP. The tankers all get their fuels from the same refineries, it's just after they buy it, they put in their own stuff.

In the end... if you wanna fork over more cash to keep the rich pigs happy... be my guest. Just don't preach cluelessness.

I find it hilarious that you get so upset over it. While their may be no difference in the fuels, you sir are still defending what you prefer to use just as the rest of us do. Your preference just happens to be the cheapest; so while we preach ours your just as guilty for preaching yours.
