Default Brand of gas

I've seen a couple of post about premium gas and a lot on Mohawk 94, but still have no conclusion on what brand of gas I should go for. Which one do you guys use? Mohawk, Shell, Petro-Can, Esso, superstore/save-on/Safeway, etc...

I currently use Petro-Can 91 because it's the closest gas station to my house and I heard they are the most consistent in their fuel. Plus other people suggest that for me.

So which one do you use and why?

Esso since it has the lowest sulphur content.
Also, I try to say away from ethanol mixed fuels.
sorry I am not a tree hugger and I run a straight pipe so away


Oh, I don't like Shell either for their activities in Nigeria and supporting Ferrari

Esso, the self serve express pumps you save 5.5 cents/L haha.

edit. corner of Centre Street and McKnight is the one I use to pump at until the construction. the other one is in the WalMart Parking lot on 36th.

hm... I would like to go to superstore just because I get superbucks! Any way to save money is good fuel for me. But back to performance wise, you guys all use 91?
