For some reason, ARCO gas always seems to be 10-20 cents cheaper than other gas stations, even when they are in the exact same intersection. I have heard rumors throughout my life that is is due to possible lower quality of gas in ARCO.

I also know two people that refuse to use ARCO gas because they believe it's of lower quality. What's interesting is that these two people are from vastly different ends of the automotive spectrum. One drives a 4x4 198x ford ranger and the other is a subaru wrx modder.

Does anyone have any concrete knowledge why ARCO gas seems to have lower prices than their competitors?
