All those years, I seriously thought I was "treating" my car-- and I thought the extra octane would help make up for the additional cost. Oops! Lesson learned.

My Dad's got to read this. I think we've got him down to that middle grade (what is that, anyway?). Maybe this could be the final push.

what's up with 85 like they have in Idaho?

It is very important that before starting your car's engine, you must see to it that it's in a good condition. You must also check if it has enough gas. I have read of this news. A Chevy Volt recently caught fire while in storage for a number of weeks after being used in federal crash checks. An exploration by federal experts has begun into safety issues concerning the Volt and other vehicles equipped with similar battery packs.

Need help. 1999 LHS. I am 3rd owner, owned 2 years. No major repairs yet. Gas milage dropped to 261 miles per to from 310. I have a engine light that shows occasionally. Rough idle occasionally but clears up. Good car, want to keep it as long as possible. Additionally, I was told that 235R15 performance would be a good upgrade on the tires, I disagree. 225R17 touring is what is on the car.
