For some people, it's very feasible to drive on High Octane gas daily.
Daily driver is a car that will get you to where you want to go "DAILY" So going on a once a year cross country trip, is not in a "Daily drivers" definition. If I have a 5km drive in to work and that's what I do every day, maybe 100km a week of "Daily Driving" and I put in 2$ a liter gas..I'm using what, 20$ of gas assuming 10L/100km gas consumption (keep in mind we aren't racing, just driving to work)
This seems very feasable to me. Now of course if you live in North Bay, or Timmins this wouldn't work, but that's life. We can't expect people to "dumb it down" because of the less fortunate..that doesn't make sense at all.
Fact is Tom's car is NOT A DYNO QUEEN.
**EDIT** by "Dumb it down" I meant "Tune it down" or "adjust the numbers for the high octane deficient places"
