OK doesn't carry any 93, only 87-91. Anywhere south of DFW down to Mexico and west of Junction (draw a line straight north) is where 93 because a pain to find

Going east isn't a problem though for 93.

I want to eventually make a road trip in my car out to California, but I don't know what I would do for fuel...probably get an 87 tune for my mods and just call it at that.

Where is Dallas is there 95?

And that's nice to know that OKC has some 93. Doubt I will ever venture that far into OK unless I'm sucked in by the massive suckage that is OK.

It's windy in OK due to the 10,000 trailer parks and the tornadoes tearing through them. lol

Yep, I've heard that is true.... and once you realize that Oklahoma was one of the last land masses in the Continental US to be settled then you start wondering... why did everyone bypass Oklahoma to continue west (only circling back when nothing else was left)?

The answer comes when you drive through it.

Im just wondering if the dealer will put any gas in my car after they diagnose my trans issue. If they do I know it will only be regular unleaded. I took it up there with better than a half tank. I doubt the dealer will put any in it but I just wonder if I should call them and tell them not to put regular if they take it for a long drive...

The only time a dealer will gas up your car is after you buy it. Never again should they put gas in your car for you.

If you have your tunes on a handheld, reset it to the stock tune prior to taking it to a dealer so they don't re-flash over your custom one.

They shouldn't reflash for trans work based on what I've heard from the techs on the board but that's the risk I take.
