Some say that Costco dilutes their fuel with ethanol and that is why their fuel is lower in price.
So I decided to test this as best I could in a reasonable amount of time without going to far out of my way or wasting to much money.
So here are the stats on the truck.
2004 Land Cruiser
Michelin LTX A/T2’s at 50psi.
NGK Iridium’s with 40,000 miles on them.
K&N air filter.
Shell Rotella T6 5W-40 full synthetic heavy duty diesel oil, 8qts.
Castrol Syntec 75W-90 gear oil in the differentials and transfer case.
I always use premium.
Aircon is off.
I use my cruiser control everywhere. And I don’t drive like an @ss.
Sometimes my 20min commute takes 20min, other times it takes 60min.
I started with Costco because that is where I always get my gas.
