  1. Best in what regard? They all charge too much. Petro, Shell and Esso are cross-Canada, but Sunaco is only in the eastern half of the country


  2. All of the gas companies like to promote their gas as being cleaner for the environment, or better for your engine, etc.

    For the most part, all the gases are the same. They all will contain additives that help prevent fuel line breakdown, or soemthing that helps the fuel do its job. You can figure out if one is "cleaner burning" than the other based on their octane ratings, which vary between gas companies, and differ between regular unleaded or super.

    It's also important to keep in mind that you may find that a great gas from one station is not as good as the lesser quality gas from the station next door because one is pumping their gas from a brand new underground tank, while the other has not changed their tanks in ten years and it is full of water and ground particles.

    If you want to do your part to keep the money you spend on gas here in Canada, then I would look at buying from a company based in Canada.

    All of the majors have head offices here in Canada. If you want to lower the demand on the oil&gas market from Saudi Arabia, who keep pushing up the prices on us, try researching each company and determine where their gas supply comes from.

    Does it get supplied by the Alberta oil sands? Hibernia? Or is it in some way associated with ARAMCO, the acronym of the Arab American Oil Company? Keeping both the jobs and the fuel here and supporting those businesses will help promote the local economy instead of going to add a new wing of some sheik's palace.

  3. Shell, probably. They are usually a few cents lower than the rest of them, and they are nationwide.

    :D
