I see many advise using high octane fuel for towing. I am thinking seriously about buying a RL and wanted to get some input on my situation. If I buy one, it would be my daily driver around town all week. Then, on the weekends, I would be towing a 3000# (loaded) 6x12 cargo trailer. I typically top off the tank before leaving, then fill again when I return home.
So, would it help to top off with 93 on Fridays? Or, should I just run 89 all the time? Given that I tow pretty much every weekend, it would be hard to run 87 all week, then 93 every time I tow, so I'm trying to find the right balance.
FWIW, I did a test-tow for 20-30 minutes using 87 and it handled my trailer quite well, but I was on back roads and never went over 60.
