In Vaughan,Ontario its at 1.44L 89 Octane and $1.51L 91 Oct
I agree completly with these findings
I havent used 87 in the truck so cant tell you about that but
89oct = 710km on a Tank
91oct = 815km on a Tank
Shell Gasoline with 5% ethanol in the 89 and 0% in the 91oct
Mind you $178.00 fill up of 91 hurts but its worth the extra 100KM
Plus I dont know if its just me but the truck feels like its got more
get up and go with the 91oct. More put you back in your seat power.
This is on a 2011 Crew Cab HEMI 4x4 3.55Gears 20" wheels and 33" tires

I'm also testing the apparent findings of higher mileage on 91 compared to 87.
Also in Vaughan, fill up at the Petro on Langstaff and Weston.
I have a 2010 5.7L 4x4 RCSB.
I average 530 to 560kms on a full tank of gas with 87.
I let the tank almost go dry, then filled up with 91 on my previous fill-up.
Today I hit 450kms, but still have a quarter tank. I'll post my final Kms once I finish the tank.

Eclipsems,
Also note I have the 121Litre tank in my crew cab so my numbers will be different then yours as it looks like you have the 98Litre correct ? I usually hit the shell at HW7 & Vaughan Valley Rd

I have been fooling around with differant gas premiums lately, and thought I'd pass some figures along. This are all Ontario, Canada prices, and milage.
2011 Stock Hemi 4x4 Crew Cab.
**I never realized how much of a differance in gas grades, and milage. Between regular gas and mid grade, for only $5 gaining 130km per tank!
Regular 87- 98Litres, @1.22- $119.56 to fill up. Averaging 600km per/tank
18L/100km
Mid grade 89- 98Litres, @1.27- $124. 46 to fill up. Averaging 730km per/tank
12L/100km
Premium 91- 98Litres, @1.34- $138. 66 to fill up. Averaging 790km per/tank
10-11L/100km
These figures are with a full tank, with 70-80% highway driving and being light footed.

98L tank averaging 18L is max 550kms not 600 because that would make it 108L (18L X 6(100kms) 108 L (600kms)) 18L att 1.22 = 22$ per 100kms 800kms = 176$
98L tank averaging 11l egals 880kms (11L X 9(100kms) = 99L (900kms)) therefor 790 is really 13.5l
13.5L att 1.34 = 18$ per 100kms 800kms= 144$
still some good saving's, tho.
My AVR showed me 11.4L/100kms on the highway once, on 87 octane gas, but I did not due a manuel calcutation to confirmed that.
I think I will tried both gas on my next trip, to see.
thank's for the input, Its always good to see these types of calculations

Just finished my tank of 91 with 572kms with driving my usual style, with approx. 80kms more of highway driving than my usual.
I usually get 530 to 560kms per tank with 87.
As much as I would have hoped to see a difference in regards to mileage between the two grades, unfortunately my experience with my RBSC 5.7L Hemi Ram is it's not worth the premium for 91.
