    Aren't Shell and Texaco the same now, or did it change again?

    Anywhy, whatever is close and "cheap" I buy.

    Whichever is cheaper between Valero and Exxon. If they're the same price, I tend to go to Exxon because there are two closer to my house and to my work than any Valero is.

    I heard it's all the same crap...gas is gas no matter where you buy it because it's coming from the same source and its all marketing to make you think it's better. Do any of you guys know?
