Speak for yourself. I searched.

And it's not new people. It's one new guy.. with two of the same stupid post.

89 is ten cents more, or like 45 cents more a tank.

91 is twenty cents more, or 90 cents more a tank.

So it doesn't really matter unless you are experiencing pinging (being that the temps here exceed 110 in the day inside the city I have to use 89, if not 91.)

I paid $3.69/gal USD for fuel earlier today...I can't wait to get out of the Texas Panhandle.

You won't gain any advantage from running higher octanes unless your engine is knocking (which it shouldn't be doing). I know it's cheap to put in better fuel but just stick with what your manual tells you (87).
