Default What would be my best bet for the best gas?

Around my area i dont have any suggested brands of gas like Shell, Chevron, etc......i have 2 Caseys, 2 Citgos, a Horizons, and a Kwik Star.......and about 20 miles away i have a BP station, Ampride, and Kum N Go......what would be my best bet as far as fuel quality.....i want the best for my car but im kind of in a jam i think....and the highest octane ive seen around here is 91.....anybody suggest where i should fuel up at out of those choices?

With those choices, I'd use Citgo in the close ones and BP in the further ones

Normally I use Total, or Phillips 66, but due to the price I use the Caseys 91 in my T/A, cheapest premium around, $2.63 Unless I want to make a run to Oklahoma
So far haven't had any problems at all, the wife used the Caseys regular in her Pathfinder, and had no problems at all
I'd say if it's cheaper go ahead and use the Caseys
