black is the fastest...everyone knows that
We'll have to see about that when the new silver trucks start showing up.

LOL. I think they just polish the primer on the silver trucks. That makes them the lightest.

I would save the money on 91/93, unless you have some serious mods or are racing or something. I am running 87 and it is still FUN!!!!!!

I don't know much about gas trucks, but I've learned 2 things about fuel:
One (from my experience with diesels, and the results of bad fuel):
Buy the best you can from the same high volume location when possible.
Two (from the mechanic at the HD dealership going over my new scooter when I asked what grade fuel it needed)
"Why the F*** would you S*** in the tank?"
With that I buy premium fuel from the same high volume major brand station near my house whenever possible.
Just my opinion.

From a mileage perspective (I know there's a special thread for that, but this is pertinent) I have clocked an extra 40km (25miles) on a tank using the good shit. It's a premium of $0.30 around here, so depending on what my anticipated driving use will be, I judge accordingly.
Mine is a mix of 60% city, 30% highway, and 10% - "rug it to blow away that dodge hemi that thinks he owns the road" (so far I haven't been disappointed, but have yet to find a Grand Cherokee SRT hemi to play with...)

I noticed the same, though I haven't had a chance to look further into it as my truck is currently in the shop. Essentially, I had been running 91, and on the first tank of 87 I tried, I got 2 mpg less. Need to repeat a few times to confirm whether there is a correlation, but my brother noticed the same thing, and so did you, so I'm pretty sure there is.
