I have never seen that in CA. Do other stations in your area have it? I am in San Diego and I can only find 91. I assume it is a 76 station?

There’s a few in Newport Beach. I typically go to the 76 station on MacArther and PCH in Newport Beach that has 101.

There’s a handful of stations throughout every county. Best thing to do is just look up 100 octane on google maps and locations should come up in your surrounding area.

I have been running 87 for two years now without any pinging. Have also done some serious off-roading with same fuel with no ping or knock. I will only use 93 if towing. Average MPG is around 15.5 city and 18 highway at 80 MPH.

ethanol e-30 is 94 octane. I've never owned a flex vehicle and have millions of miles with e-30 one alone has 313,*** and still going strong. I get it tho baby the raptors. any mod voids the warranty. and I have modded mine.

I run 93 top tier. I average 14.6mpg, which sounds pretty low. I do get slightly worse with 87/89. I wonder why my mileage is lower than many others.

been contemplating this as I just got my raptor.

I had the dealer fill it up with 93 since it was on their dime, but i was always told 87 is fine for these engines, and if you tow, you should get 93. why i dont know but guess i'll continue with 93 until i figure something out

try to figure it with the formula rather than the dash output. mine was completely different than what my dash was reading when i did it with the fuelly app.
