Mainly Shell but I've used them all depending when-where the car needs gas. As long as the MPG doesn't take a dive.

I use whatever is convenient for me, but it is usually Chevron since it is right by the freeway.

There's a reason you can pop your car into neutral. Get out and PUSH!

Hmmm...Does anyone know If it would be "advisable" or even "recommended" to be putting 89 octane Chevron gas if I mix it with Octane booster?

Octane booster only bumps up your octane by "points" meaning only a fraction of one octane rating. It's actually more expensive to buy a bottle of octane booster than filling up with 91 octane in the first place. What are you saving by using 89, a buck and some change plus the cost of the octane booster? No thanks.
