Is CostCo gas actually higher quality as sometimes rumored?
>>29114588Overrated. Not worth waiting in line
>>29114588Nohttps://youtube.com/shorts/nJEypCD_ryQ?is=_QZV_EEqRDPLDL7e
>>29114588no, its not better quality, but the experience is quicker with zero BS.>scan card>scan CC>pickup hose>select grade>start pumpingno other bs, no ads, no carwash, no receipt question (automatically off) no annoying music and the gas is considerably cheaper than everywhere else.>>29114606eh, its at most a 10 minute wait. i usually shitpost in line but i tend to avoid busy hours and only go in the very early morning or near close. its very quick then
>>29114606>Not worth waiting in lineThere's no wait if you don't mind doing a reach around
>>29114588it doesn't matter. >but muh octaneit doesn't matter>muh additivesit doesn't matter. same type of retards to put catch cans on their daily driven subarus. It doesn't fucking matter. just drive your car and put gas in it you fucking sperge. your economy ass engine doesn't care. you doing stoplight pulls doesnt fucking matter. just change your oil on time and let it warm up before hammering on it, nothing else fucking matters.
>>29114727Octane definitely matters you retard lmao
>>29114728yea bro watch out for kum n go, their 87 is actually 73 octane. you should only get gas from costco because it's higher quality and 87 is actually 87. not like they both get the same monthly inspections you disingenous punk.
>>29114588Not at all, all the gasoline comes from the same Kinder-Morgan loading racks which are supplied by pipelines, the local kinder Morgan in your city supplies 90% of the gas stations with gas, the other 10% is gas stations finding a slightly cheaper alternative 400 miles away (at another kinder Morgan Kek) and having it delivered
>>29114728not if you're driving a basic bitch as economy car like you probably are. I put 87 in my Mercedes for years and never had a problem when it "required" 91.
>>29114588It's not nearly as good as Shell NiTRO+ 93.
>cheaper than other stations>no adsDon't go when it's extremely busy and you'll be okay.
>>29114588Sure, it's a million times better than other gas. Make sure to pay for a membership subscription so you can buy it. :^)
>>29114792>Make sure to pay for a membership subscription so you can buy it.They also have really good deals on food, socks, underwear, tires, alcohol, TVs/laptops, outdoor furniture and prescriptions, I fucking love Costco
>>29114792Seethe, Cuck-ee's shopper
>>29114588Yes, it meets the Top Tier standard for extra detergents. So it's better than generic gas stations, but it's equivalent to other Top Tier-compliant brands like Citgo and Sunoco.
>>29114716Do you Americans have your flow rates capped or something? Do you actually have to watch an ad before you're allowed to pump? I can fuel up at least 2-3x quicker at Shell vs Costco. For me that's worth paying the extra $5. Time is money.
>>29114716>no, its not better quality, but the experience is quicker with zero BS.>scan card>scan CC>pickup hose>select grade>start pumpingwhat gas stations do you go to where this isn't the case? maybe sometimes you have to decide if you want a receipt or not
>>29114588It's lower, close to bottom of the barrel (but that would be Arco). Costco has been sued several times for putting too much detergent in their gas and fucking up people's engines. They're also putting as much filler in as they can currently, because I'm definitely not getting as much range as I used to and it's pretty significant, close to 100 miles less per tank. Many people are reporting this. Kind of makes me wonder if it's worth saving a dollar per tank, mine is only 12 gallons so saving 10 cents a gallon over the next cheapest option really isn't that much.
>>29114767This. I'm shitface wasted, but let's be real here gas is gas and adulteration is rare, even in these conditions, and I'm going to fuck you over a barrel of oil if you fuck it up.I'm not worried buying from new jeet stations. If they screw me over I'll screw em harder. I've got nothing else to do.
>>29115407>This. I'm shitface wastedBeyond based
>>29114788Engine goes Ping pong pang! No problems.
ITT: D*tch shills have slow mental breakdowns over people not choosing Sh*ll
>>29114767Get yr box beat by any dogs lately?
>>29115417The ECU would just retard timing and you'd have less power.
>>29114606>>29114716I'm not waiting in line to save $2. Only retards stop at "club" pumps.
>>29115230>Do you actually have to watch an ad before you're allowed to pump?No, retard. It's just annoying. The ads are designed to annoying you so you pay attention during the time it takes to put five gallons in.
>>29116228So just go sit in your car while the pump pumps?
>>29115364Some people never leave their hometown so assume things are exactly the same every else. >>29114716you don't have to answer the receipt question big dawg it comes when you're done pumping, you can just leave >all those other "no bs" thingsI just call that a normal gas station
>>29116374its not allowed you have to be attending it at all times
>>29114727Catch cans are good even on stock daily drivers.OEM PCV systems are trash, especially on direct injection cars.
>>29116374This is functionally the same as saying you should just abandon your car at the pump and come back ten minutes later.
>>29116520lol what a nice shithole you live in.>>29116533What? Sitting in your vehicle is not the same as abandoning it.
>>29116553No it's the same. You aren't paying attention to anything going on.
>>29114588I only use shell. It's right by my house and the nearest Costco gas station is 20 minutes away.
>go to gas station across the street from costco that has cheaper gas to compete with them>walk in one day to break $100 bill>they have more bongs than a head shopkek. Still beats waiting in line.
>>29114588No. My gd1 Honda fit (rhd jap car) absolutely hates it. It’s totally fine if I use Shell or Mobil, but costco gas every time gets dogshit mileage. Like going from 38mpg to 25mpg. Car is a 5 speed manual and I shift no different day to day.
>>29114755Sunoco has the best quality with 93Octane as well
>>29114588poorfag behaviour
>>29114755>kum & godoesn't exist anymore. They Kame & Went.
>>29115230Any of the pumps with ads, I knife the speaker dead so I don't have to hear that shit while I'm pumping 113 litres.
>>29115230>Do you Americans have your flow rates capped or something?Some stations cap the rates due to fears of destructive vandalism by people spraying gas or they lay the pump down and let it flood the pavement with gasoline.
My car needs 93 octane. Is Shell that much better than Costco?
>>29118607How?
>>29120215>Is Shell that much better than Costco?For the best Shell gas (which is their nitro one), other than the octane, even that only has a marginally larger amount of of PEA in it. That Shell gas and the Costco gas are among the highest PEA content gasolines out there.
>>29119516I was so hoping it would combust and light him up like the fucking christmas tree in national lampoon
>>29114716>Better experience>10 minute waitI think Costco people are retarded.If they would just say that they like the Costco branded foods I would be okay with it. But the fact that they lie and try and pretend like it's a good deal or a better experience is fucking stupid
>>29114588It only matters if you give a fuck and plan on having your car forever. If you don't give a shit about your vehicle, put off brand whatever cheap gas you can. If you do care, stick to big name brand stations. The additives and shit only really help over a long period of time.
>>29120374t. owner of a hole in the wall gas-diluting hand pump station
>>29120393It's literally the same experience dumbass except Costco gas pump doesn't have hotdogs or pizza
