Message	So I go to get gas today and pull up to the pump just as a brand new SE Maxima is leaving. I think to myself, "I hope they put 91 octane in there." I look at the readout and sure enough, 87 octane was apparently good enough for them. I wonder if they just didn't know that their car takes 91 or if they just don't care. They just spent $30K or so on that car but can't afford the extra $2 per tank? People are just getting dumber, cheaper, and lazier by the minute. Just thought I'd vent a bit and get that off my chest. Hope everybody on here uses 91 and up. Have a good one, Zach 95 Super Black 2+2
