    " I'll also follow up on a comment left on a prior update in which a reader asked if we've been filling up with regular or premium gas. We've put premium 91 octane gas in a few times, but the vast majority of fill-ups have been with regular."

    After my experiences with a turbo-charged Volvo, I have to say that regular gas is a false economy. I see the mindset that only "prestige" cars take premium is alive and well at Edmunds even after the Chevy Cruze proved that turbos run best with premium.
