Easier to fill up when it cost 50$ vs 90$ some people drive a lot for work and the cost is real. Most jobs you cannot write off gas as a tax either unless you work 1099 ect
the difference in cost between 87 and 93 is not 90% lol. That’s like saying if regular is 2.50 premium is 4.75.
the real delta, at least in south Jersey/Philly, is closer to 60/70 cents. So like 3.30 reg, 3.90 premium.
that equates to $6-7 more per fillup every 10 gallons pumped. Our cars, having 13.2gallon tanks with a 2-gallon “reserve” (so really 11.2 tank), fit this schema perfectly.
so no - it is not $50 reg vs $90 premium. It’s $33 vs $40.
make it $1 between reg and prem and you’re looking at a $10 increase on a full tank compared to regular.
if you can’t afford that in a GTI don’t drive a GTI
