Paul,
I would be very happy without the special formulations. Tomorrow I have to take my 2008 Taurus in as they have a recall out to have the ECU re-programmed for I am sure to make it use more gas as the gas companies feel their huge profits are shrinking right now. The car passed smog last year with less than half of the allowed limits and I don't drive it a lot, but the Republic of Calif. won't register it next year even though it passes smog unless I have that certificate that I had the ECU reprogrammed. In my opinion this is nothing more than another money grab and has nothing to do with pollution. So I get to spend most of the day in Corning which isn't that far as it is straight down I-5 and about 60 miles from here. It just annoys me that they can't leave anything alone. And I filled up with gas yesterday as the Shell station and the low octane was $.2.95. For here that is almost unheard of.
