    I was gonna say that's gotta be somewhere through Big Sur. That one gas station toward the end with the rest stop and boutique store had premium that was almost $7/gallon two years ago when we drove through. But it was a total tourist trap place.

    There are gas stations right now in Beverly Hills at well over $5/gallon but they know their demographic

    The other day the hose Accidentally hit premium in a wealthier part of town and I didn’t even notice until after I put $10 (which was nothing) in gas and switched back to reg before it made me more broke then I wanted to be :oops:

    I don't even look at the price anymore most of the time, I just look for Arco's because they always have the cheapest Top Tier besides Costco

    I don't even look for top tier cause Toyotas does give a shit as long as the octane is bang on. The BMW is stupid fuel sensitive though, days when I want 100% full power I need Chevron 93.

    Its actually kind of harder to find gas that isn't top tier anymore really....I think USA Stations around here are the only ones that aren't. Maybe 7/11 stations too

    Top Tier is probably like CARB anyway...just pay enough money and you get the title

    Is that a problem around there? The little mom and pop farm supply places here usually have lines into the street for AG and DOT diesel.

    It's just a minimum addative package content thing anyway. Doesn't indicate anything about cleanliness or fuel station maintenance. I fill at the Wally World for the yotas, and normal stations for the bimmer (conoco, cenex, chevron, sometimes Costco)
