going from Iowa to Wyoming on i-80 was all uphill. freaking elevation was 6800 ft. i think. but the MPG was still around 24-26 i think....and i was doing 80-90 most of the time...

I think most owners will tell you to run the best you can. Both my cars, my WS6 and my ole Tbird are on a steady diet of premium. I was discussing gas prices with my dad and I was telling him that even with the cost of fuel now it is only the matter of a couple dollars to get the good stuff.
So...go for the best. Here, that is 93.
