I don't. It's over $1.00 more per gallon around here for it. Doesn't make sense as it is cheaper to make than e gas. Just like diesel, cheaper to make but they charge more for it???????

I'm in California, so it ain't going to happen. Even on road trips to other states, I don't worry about it.

There is a Kwik Trip every 2 blocks in my neck of the woods so I don't really ever have to go out of my way. But I would if I had to.

I primarily use Kwik Trip as well -- they have that 91 octane non-ethanol "recreational" fuel I think they call it. Also, most of the Shell gas stations in central WI still have 91 non-ethanol (FYI in case you're ever in the area).

If I use the 87 I hear a light ping on the hills. I will run 93 10% before using 87. Unfortunately most stations around here carry ethanol, pure gas is a minority in Iowa so I often don't have a choice. I burn it and forget about it. I haven't had any issues.
