Low octane fuel for a 2,000 mile road trip to Phoenix

Hi folks,

I'm loading up my 2007 S tomorrow and moving out to Phoenix -- a good 2,000+ mile trip. In the interest of saving a bit of cash during the trip, I was thinking I could just put in some lower octane fuel throughout as I won't be doing any high revving with the car for the trip. Once I get to Phoenix I'll run the car super low on the low octane fuel, then go back to using 92+, so I should be rid of most of the bad stuff when I'll want to properly enjoy the car's performance again. Anyone have any compelling reasons to share to NOT do this ?


P.S. If anyone's in Phoenix, please drop me a line, would be nice to meet up, as I only know 2 other people out there at the moment!


Cheers,

Emmanuel
