That explains my experience. In December, I traveled from Iowa to Arizona and back, using either 87 or 89 octane fuel depending on cost (some states subsidize ethanol, making the 89 cheaper than the 87). During this trip, my SID mileage usually ran just under 28 mpg. Yesterday I returned from a round trip to North Carolina, using whatever unleaded premium was available wherever I stopped to refuel (usually 93, but sometimes as low as 91 octane). My SID mileage exceeded 32 mpg throughout the trip. The premium usually cost 20 cents more than regular. I would have saved money at twice the difference.
