Default Fuel type

So I'm sitting at my desk, supposed to be working but reading the service manual and I'm wondering. The service manual says using premium fuel is not necessary, however I was told that with my engine being the 4.7L V8 High Output, I should always use Premium fuel. I have done so for 7 Years now and its done just fine, but now I'm wondering if I have wasted a lot of money. Does anyone else use only premium or am I the only one?

Thanks

ive heard over and over that it is HIGHLy suggested to run premium fuel for the HO's. i do not have one so i cant say for myself but other members have said running reg fuel in their HO's made the truck run like poop.
