I run 93, but next month I am making a 2,700 mile round trip. I plan to use 87 on the drive out (will save us about $60) and then 93 on the way back as we will be towing a car.
I've got 5,000 miles and I've had the truck two months ?
The standard wheels look like some cheapos you would order from Tire Rack. The bead lock wheels are much better looking and accent the truck nicely for those that ordered the best color ?
Yeah, that's why I am asking. I haven't been off-road yet and 90% have been highway miles (50-85mph). I don't do much hard acceleration and try to drive conservatively (~18mpg).
Oh no, is Ranger/Hobb trying to argue about octane and altitude again? I called him out for being wrong and when I provided scientific sources spanning over 50 years, he blocked me. You'll be in the club soon, too, I'm sure.
Oh, I wasn't arguing, lol. I was just providing scientific papers from 1950 - 2002 proving him wrong.
Being in the USAF does not an expert make. I mean, I work in the automotive industry for a living, but that doesn't make me an expert. So, I deferred to (the work of) those that are.
We did, when I stated, "In newer ones, you shouldn't use lower than specified by the manufacturer."
I have lived at 7,000 feet.
I'm not going to argue about this. You were mistaken about the effect of altitude on octane ratings and that's okay.
Please point to a source showing me that the higher the altitude, the higher the octane required.
We are no longer talking about this truck, as we have already established you need to run 87 octane minimum (though, it is 91 if tuned). We are talking in general.
