its worth it in the long run to use 89, you get better gas mileage, it basically off sets the price
I run 91 with my tuner and get about 550 km from a tank with 35 trail grapplers on. That is mixed city and highway km's

How does that even make sense??? Thats nuts lol anyways i seem to get maybe 20-30 more KM outta a tank on 91 opposed to 87. Im gonna try and run 89 as much as possible. I got 523KM to bone dry with 33" mud grapplers on the highway cruise control at 115KM/H all flat no downshifting to get up hills with 91 octane
