Hearing the crisp packets pop as you go over the passes also interesting.

I was under the impression that running lower octane at altitude was beneficial for vehicles that don't have electronically controlled fuel systems, so your basic carburetor set up in an old 70's Chevy would benefit but are there really that many vehicles on the roads of pre-emissions controls age to justify lower octane in the Rocky mountain states?

Now headed West. Started at $1.95 at Costco in upstate New York dropping to $1.75 in Missouri, back up to $1.95 in Kansas, a little over 2 in Colorado, $2.40 in Utah.

BTW, I-70 west from Denver to I-15 is an insane example of civil engineering.

2.75 by me but according to the TV this morning can be had for a dollar less in Denver. Going to Georgetown on Monday to ride the train, leaves are not that good this year, the snow a few weeks back did them no good.
Will fill up at Costco Friday and report back.

The sticker price at a local BP was $2.049 on Friday evening, but back down to $1.989 by yesterday afternoon.
I know the West Coast is in a different time zone, but you also appear to be living in a different decade!
