Perhaps. I'm simply sharing one anecdotal story. 
 
It is my understanding that federal law requires that a pump dispensing E10  
has to be so labeled. I've not seen that with the straight 91 sold in AZ. Is  
that the case in CA, Zandr?

Exactly  it's not 91 plus E10 = 93.  It's 91 with the E10 already  accounted

Right.... the best stuff that comes out of most CA pumps is 91  octane, 
and is already E10. We replaced MTBE (which I think was a CA-only  
mistake) with ethanol here.
