Just wanted to ask about fuel quality in Pittsburgh area. Which locations should be avoided.
I did check the guru list and it seems that there are like two mechanics in the area. Any mechanics not listed?
And yes, I would like to ask for a dealer recommendation to buy parts.

I never hesitate to buy from a Sheetz, or a Get Go.

What part of the city?
I'm first looking to rent a small apartment. The location is RT 51 (Saw Mill Run Blvd) at Nobles LN.

Familiar with the area. My (future) brother in law lives less than 10 minutes from there. Just a bit south of nobles lane in brentwood there is a get go right on 51. That is where I always buy fuel if I need it while we are down there.

Definitely sheetz and get-go, I also go to Country Fair because if you have them put it on a gas card its an extra 5-10 cents off a gallon for an extra minute or two of your time. I live in the Grove City area (about an hour north) but I'm down that way every so often.

Country fair is good as well.... But there aren't many.... They are more prevalent further north and based in Erie. I'm north of 80 in Oil City, but in the burgh at least 5-6 days a month.
