I've always ran 93 in my V8 vehicles. It's all about preference I guess.

Some guys with stock GTs have noticed pinging while using 87 on the stock tune and use 89 to prevent it. Any higher than 89 on a stock tune is a little uneccessary though. More octane does not equal more horsepower. 93 Octane needs more compression or more timing to fully take advantage of it.

Back on topic: Regular is $1.98 and premium is $2.18. I use premium in my tuned sixxer.

For some reason beyond my comprehension, premium is about $2.23 here in El Paso.
