Ha! It's not just the warranty. I really don't need to go faster. I'm not racing. I do a little spirited driving from time to time but mostly I'm just blending with the traffic flow. If I really wanted to go faster, I'd trade for a 2011 or wait for the 2012 Boss 302. Now if the economy improves, who knows? A GT500 might start looking good to me. Then I'd have to use premium gas!

Adding performance mods isn't as much about being faster as it is about simply having more power available. And any guy that turns his nose up at more power has to turn in his Man Card. Of course, that's just MY opinion.

Depends on where in the NE, a lot.

Last couple times, I paid $2.59.9 for 91 in the Mustang as required for its tune, and I think $2.64.9 for 93 in the turbo Subie (as strongly recommended). Sunoco, less than 2 miles from the house.

(Only my yard tools should use 89 or lower, so I don't pay much attention to those prices )

I could say, "That's not what your mama says" but then, you know how it would go from there...
