Any difference for mileage or maintenence in other words? Toyota is listed as recommending Top Tier, but my dealer doesn't seem to know much about it.

Also, I use 87 octane. Better mileage (is it worth it) at 91?

Thanks! This is a fun group.
Though I can't find the thread right now, search the forums for Dave Harville's response re: toptier gas. His due diligence casts a suspicious light on them- a very circular chain of contact people/addresses.

edit: here's the thread.
