I filled our Ford F350 Super Duty truck with Unleaded 88 (15% Ethanol, 88 octane from Sheetz). The 7.3 gas V8 Godzilla big block engine reacted to it on our over 12 hour drive from PA through New York. I saved $0.68 per gallon. How did the truck run? What was my fuel economy and MPG difference/loss compared to "regular" Unleaded 87 gasoline? This video explains all of that. On this trip, we went from NW PA up to Black Lake NY. We were taking our daughter Mackenzie up to camp/vacation with her friends. Our rescue Great Dane (Olive) road along on this 6 hour drive each way, with breaks only for the dog to stretch out and go to the bathroom, and a quick dinner at Arby's (4 for $10 roast beef sandwiches) #summerofolive #unleaded88 #purplecollarlife #fueleconomy @SheetzTV
