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

I just thought of something...After reading around on other sites, shouldn't the knock sensors still adjust timing with an aftermarket tune? I read with Lund tunes that the knock sensors would still adjust the car. I mean these cars are able to run 87 and are able to adjust their timing on their own from the factory. I know my current tune is optimized for 93 but I would still think the car would be able to auto adjust, would it not? I'm not planning on trying it "just because" but I would think if all I could find was 91 it would be ok, especially N/A.

It will be on razor's edge in doing so. When you get your custom tune, ther timing is set up to run the specific fuel you specify, so that there is hardly any, if at all, work being done by the knock sensors. Everything in the tune is optimized for the car to run on a specific octane. This is why custom tunes unleash so much more power and driveability over the stock tune, that has to handle multiple octane fuels.

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.

Actually the land was supposed to be set aside for NAtive Americans. This was the reason for everyone passing through and not stopping. Oklahoma translated into Choctaw literally means "Red People".
