...if your vehicle needs a higher octane, YOU have to pay "extra" and buy something to "add" to each tank. Basically, a "guzzler tax" for extra HP.

...there's no need to have 2, 3 or 4 or more grades of gasoline...just winter and summer "blends" as the weather (or location) dictates.

...think about it -- there's basically just ONE grade of diesel the world around (low-sulphur).
