Hahaha yeah I'm with you on the points!!!

Me and my dad share my card, the trucks at his work all have Shell Fuel Cards too, so we're getting around 3000 points per quarter at the moment. biglaugh

Two seperate questions:
1 - Are all fuels equal? Answer is 'no'.
2 - Which do other people use? Post a poll (with voting buttons) if you want to find that out.

However, two caveats too: Just becasue there are differences in fuels does not mean that your car will see a performance benefit from high octane fuels. And, just because someone else uses a particular fuel, doesn't make it the right choice for you or your car.
