Gas Grade

Man… I just drove up the CA coast to stay at my in-law’s place for the weekend and the highest any gas stations within a couple hours offer is 91. 🤦🏽‍♂️🙂↔️
Is it any different in the Bay Area or, Truckee?

Absolutely. There’s 93 available in both those places. Truckee is crazy fuckin expensive though. Over $6 per gallon. It’s worth the Reno trip to fill the tank. Even Portola where I ended up buying a place (Truckee isn’t the same place I grew up in anymore) is cheaper by far!

I’m not sure what the deal is up on the North Coast.

Hey utopia isn't cheap. How are you going to get the Californian government to fix everything without funding?

Man, I was looking for places at the base of Mount Rose because I’d have loved to get the hell outta Cali. The problem with that was that for what we were looking for the price would be over a million. Out in Portola, I got a nicer house on 7.5 acres, for considerably less. It has everything I wanted except for the proximity to ski areas. I figure for the 750k I saved I can afford the gas, and the Blackwing! Only bad part is I’m stuck paying CA taxes. 🫣

I've been in Cali (both South & North) for a very long time and I've never seen 93 at the pump. Normally, 91 is the highest with the rare stations carrying race gas at the pump which is 100 or higher.

The Safeway on Georgia Street in Vallejo as well as the Sinclair on Fairgrounds Blvd both have 93. The Cheveron on 70 in Portola does too.

In Reno I usually gas up at the Maverick on Kietzke, but 93 is available pretty much everywhere in Reno.

Please take a pic for me the next time that you get 93 at the pump in CA not NV.
 
Will do! I won’t be back down that way for a couple weeks. I’m going further North to visit my mom in Eureka. But I will absolutely take a pic and tell you exactly where I’m at next time I fill er up in CA with 93.
