Default Best Insurance ? Gas ?

Hey boys,

Since I'll be moving on up shortly, I'd love to know how much you guys are paying for insurance, and how much a 25-year old can expect to pay. Which companies are good ?

Oh and, I'm assuming 91 octane is the highest obtainable ? There's absolutely no way to get 93 or higher ?

Thanks,

Romy.

If you mix 100octain 2.5 gals. to 14 gals of 91octain you have 93octain-ish. If you drive over 4000rpm's alot you will need to do this. but there are stations in Santa Clara
that pump 100octain from the pump so it's easy to do down there. Up 30mis. in the East Bay I-680 / I-580 we can only get it in 5gal. can & mix it.

Thanks jack, sir.

How expensive is 91 octane ? What about the 100 ?

And I'm paying just over $700.00 yr for insurance. And I'd like to know where to buy the 100 oct too. I filled up this morning for 2.59 gal (91) at Tesoro. Chevron is a bit more, Shell is a lot more. 76 is on par with Chevron ( I prefer 1 of the last 2). No Sunoco's out here (Damn it!).

in santa clara 91 is about 2.79$ & 100 is at the pump @ 4.99$

PER CORSAIR- there are 2 or 3 places in So. Bay where 100octain is right out of the pump.

Best insurance in CA? Wawanesa. But you need to have a clean record to join.

And we don't get any better than 91 octane at most major gas stations...

State Farm. I've been with them for 25 yrs. Good driver, multi car and married. I haven't filed a claim in over 18 yrs. It's like $746.00 for the Z.
