It's such a disingenuous octane for states to tout as regular. idaho, utah, colorado, new mexico, wyoming all tout 85 octane as regular and then tack on 30 to 40 cents for 87 or 88 octane. when are they going to stop this racket? for the three people that drive carbureted engines still the rest of us are getting screwed.

The sale of 85 octane fuel was originally allowed in high-elevation regions—where the barometric pressure is lower—because it was cheaper and because most carbureted engines tolerated it fairly well.
