What brand of gas does everyone use for their daily driver? QT, Mobile, Chevron, Shell, Circle K / 76, 7-11 / Citgo, Arco, whatever is around when you need it? I'm sure others are like me and are really picky with their gas. I had been using QT, but when it started really heating up my car started pinging and I went back to Chevron, and this seemed to help some. So, I was just wondering what others used / recommended.
I was going to make this a poll but couldn't figure outhow to do that.

i steer very clear of chevron since the techron is just an additive that waters down the gas. i have used qt for a long time in my cobra, and infact just filled up today and have had no issues what so ever. i have religiously used either qt or diamond shamrock in the cobra with no problems. i avoid places like am/pm, circlek and chevron like the plague.

Yes, but both Chevron and QT are top teir rated, so figure they gotta be on par with each other in the additive / detergent area. I'll throw am/pm in the wife's altima because it is generally the cheapest, but never in the mach. Does anyone know about Costco gas and the likes?
