What type of fuel do you guys use? Inside the gas flap it says use premium for top performance...

With my 2012 I notice a real slight "Ping" with 87 only when the truck downshifts and the engine revs for a split second. I do not notice any "Ping" when I run 91-93. I see no difference in power so I stick with the 87 as I see little benefit to running the premium fuel I really don't think a slight "ping" will damage a thing. By the way I see no difference between 87 and 89.

87 octane in my 06. If I was towing, I'd go with premium.

Ive ran 91 with a lucas injector additive on every fill since i bought the car, occasionally using bg44k to give my pistons a good cleaning, I avg 17 to 19 mpg on hwy (my pathy is only used for hwy driving). On good days ill hit 20 to 23mpg, 27mpg was the best i ever got at 60 mph on a flat road but i think it was a fluke.
