I get 94 octane and right now at the pump after discounts it fome out to be about 1.10ter. I only use chevron to as they have the best gas in canada hands down. Something to think about if you go to a lesser gas station to save a few pennies.

Sad part is that for the most part the gas at the no-name stations is exactly the same as the big four (Petro-Canada, Esso, Shell, Sunoco) except the detergent additives, but its those additives you need to keep the fuel injectors from getting full of crap :P
And for the Focus owners in Ontario, you think it's bad now? Wait til we have to buy gas with ethanol in it (2007) more expensive gas *&* worse fuel economy...

WE MUST TALK!
Some "vets" here will remember such unpopular threads by me as:
-" Nobody blends 87 on purpose"
-"Can't meet spec for your delivery? OK, it's reg then"
-"Octane is not the only way of measuring quality" (true)

For the last time:
OCTANE IS JUST ONE TWNETY PLUS MEASURES OF FUEL QUALITY but the only one displayed by the retailer (gas pump).. Half of every problems you have our could/will/ever have with the Focus is fuel related.
Buy 89 minimum or else you buy a mistake.
