I agree here. Like I said I don't like to let my truck idle cold. I prefer to drive her easy like to get her warmed up faster. Someone on here got into this discussion the other day Lol. I'm on the side of don't let your vehicle "warm up" or idle cold.

I mean if you really want to eliminate most of potential fuel issues, try finding a place where they sell ethanol-free gasoline. That's what we run in our mowers at least in my family. Otherwise 87 Octane or 89 over here!

I use Top Tier 87 Octane gas, prefer to use Costco whenever I can, I also use Hyvee as I get a discount when buying groceries. I put Berryman B12 in the tank about once every 2-3 months to help keep any carbon down in the engine.
