I only use Chevron for the Boxster. Every other car gets Costco gas.

I always use 76 Unocal station but according to Tier website, Chevron is on top. hmmmmm, should i change my gas station

I usually use Chevron because of the addition of the Techron. Other than that any top brand should be OK. I still follow the old adage of using a station that is has a high gas turn-over and staying away from stations that are being supplied when you are getting gas.

They delivery gas.
They sell gas.
The faster this cycle takes place, the more "turnover" they have.
High turnover equates to "fresher" gas.
