The consensus is regular 87 octane but for the sake of discussion I will
share what the late Bob Donalds suggested when I inquired with him once.
For cooler weather and light loads 87 octane and fully loaded trips in
hot(Summer) weather Premium which around here is 91 octane.  I do not have
enough knowledge on the subject to declare either way, just sharing what Bob
recommended.  I do know that the baseline gasoline is the same no matter
what name is on the sign and that it is the additive package that makes it
different.
