[QUOTE="YFCvii, post: 264002, member: 3252"] Just completed 9500km Calgary to Fredericton and back to Calgary. Driving in a 6.2l gas powered 2019 Sierra (similar to my C7 power-plant). Considering it a reconnaissance run for a furture Corvette drive. Used (GM recommended) premium all the way except where only regular was available. Found a lot of the trip did not have an ethanol free option. The fuel was being used right away so not much in the tank for sitting an extended period of time. Found there was no ethanol free fuel in/near Fredericton and was told it might be in St. John. Not very happy about that if/when taking the Corvette there … but I figure as long as I do not store it with the fuel, it’s the only option without a alternative. Took notes for where premium gas was not available along the route … going to have to make sure and by-pass those spots 🙂👍🏻 It sure will be nice to do the journey again with only one (maybe two) fuel stops per day rather than 4 stops in 750-900km legs. C7 Corvette mileage is awesome … not as great when towing with the Sierra. 😇👍🏻 [/QUOTE]
