Me personally - I go with petro 91..yes there's ethanol, but our cars are built to handle some ethonol...some people fill up with 91 Esso and report they see no difference...94 Petro and 91 VPower are both ethanol free...people on this board say petro 94 gives more power but the difference is minimal...I really don't care...petro 91 for me and I notice no difference between it and Vpower 91....I do agree Petro 94 does give more power (you hear the vroom vroom) but of course you use more gas....confused yet?
Ultra 94 does contain ethanol, up to 10%. Shell vpower does not contain any ethanol.

Filling up at Costco would be nice but the line ups there are crazy!
