Have to agree, I was on the fence about switching to 91 but with the cost of the XCAL, tune and the extra cost in gas I don't think it's worth it with the amount of miles I'm going to be putting on my car in the next 4 years. ( I'm a Hydro apprentice and will be traveling all over the province, my girlfriend lives in Barrie, my parents in Trenton and family in Montreal so a lot of miles) I'm all about MPG.

When I use lower end gas i get less KM per tank.
When I use top grade at stations i get better mileage per tank.
When I use Shell Vpower (No Ethanol) I get 100+KM in both the Fofo and EcoBoost F150
For that little extra 16 cents, I save a good couple of dollars. I can kill 2-3 tanks of gas a week with all the running around I do.
My father has a 5.7 IForce Tundra. Same 100liter tank and he gets maybe 400km per tank on the HIGHWAY... I told him to put some better fuel in(Shell). He now gets 500KM in CITY and our trucks are just under 7000LBS without a load of tires on.
That's how I look at it.
