Default What brand of gas do you use

Now that the topic of gas is up, what kind do you guys use. you notice any differences by using different brands of gas. i realize that different states have different brands but i think the info will still be useful.

I only use fuel refined from pure Pterodactyl's oil deposits. Most common types of fuel are refined from slow moving Brontosaurs deposits and will cause a 5 to 10% loss of HP.
