Agree with the OT tangent: why the ************* is the ***** thing so touchy and censoring every ******* word we try to **** even when they aren't ***** words?

It went from one extreme to the other. For years it seemed as if nobody monitored this forum. After having our request for a new Defender forum ignored for months, Defender owners all moved to a different Land Rover forum.

Please….spend the extra 20-30 cents a gallon and fill your rover up with 93. If you’re going to be cheap about it and try and save the $6 or 0.30cent extra@20 gallons…please get a honda pilot. I mean in a pinch if you’re desperate, 87 octane won’t **** it. You’ll get less horsepower and engine knocking when flooring it.

This, plus eleventybillion: ^^^
And also, DO NOT buy the cheapest premium. If it isn't Top Tier rated, don't put it in the tank. Please.
Fuel Stations - TOP TIER™
TOP TIER™ Licensed Brands prominently display the TOP TIER™ logo on the pump, pump handle, canopy or in a station window.

When someone "upgraded" the forum software recently (earlier this year, IIRC) it either added the censorship "feature", or changed the settings. I had no idea that r e t a r d was offensive, as the opposite of advance.
If they existed, yes admins could turn it off, or adjust the censorship settings. But like the ROUS, I don't think they exist. In the 4+ years I've been on this forum, I've never seen an admin, or even heard of anyone who has. Maybe they all upgraded to Bentaygas and left us with our boring LR's.

Learned this when I had my LR3- my mom used my truck for a couple of days hauling crap from her storage unit & when she brought it back said "I filled your tank"!!!!! My heart sunk as I knew..... Yep- engine light came on because she didnt tighten the cap, then the stalling..... I went & got an octane booster & dumped that in & it seemed to help-ish- ran that crap out & refilled with 92........ Never another issue. When you like good vodka, you just cant on the lower brands, & when you do, you feel it the next day for sure!!!! I now have a (new to me) beautiful 2014 LR4 HSE & have already sent out an email to all potential "users" as to what gas & from where to put in if need be- better yet- just let me do it......

My takeaway from this story is to never loan out your Land Rover to a “civilian.”
It's a fair point, though, IMO. The fuel quality in Mexico is iffy at best. What is one supposed to do in a case like that?
