Re: What Fords require Premium gas these days

For day to day driving I use 87 octane regular in my 3.0l V6. When I'm in the mood, I can coax a few extra ponies out of the engine by going to the "performance" tune program on my hand held tuner. It has programs for both 91 and 93 octane.

Re: What Fords require Premium gas these days

Many luxury cars today "require" premium. I was curious if anyone has a newer Ford that requires premium fuel.
