I agree with the better mileage with shell gas comment. my last fill up was sunday right before the port dover drive. I just had to fill up the other day again, but I was at 466km's and two bars left on the gas guage... that is a record for me

I'm getting roughly 500km/tank with Shell. Sunoco doesn't seem all that great so far, their 94 pulls nice, but the mileage isn't so great. I should wait until the whole tank is consumed though.

I used to do 100% sunoco...I converted to shell when the last 2 tanks were close to 525km on a tank with a few bars left.

I may use Sunoco in the future when I tune my car.

I think people just make a big deal about it, as long as you buy it from one of the big name stations and get premium, you are good.

Seriously, I really noticed that you get A LOT more kms with Shell.
Try it yourself and you will notice too.
I just filled up (not empty, but gas was cheap) and I got 350 kms and filled up 34 litres of gas.
Meaning there was about 16 left so it would prob be around 500+ on a full tank.

Sunoco I used to get like around or less than 400 on a whole tank!
