Chris...
One I might be able to answer!

For a long time Bleifrei gas (unleaded) was only an option in Germany. The
first time I saw it, I had to ask why the gas was so much cheaper than
regular (subsidized for many years)... As such, if there was a rental van
with a cat on it, it would behoove the company (VW) to make sure that all
involved understood only bleifrei gfas be used. Sound rational?
