If it pings heavy under load while using the lower OT gas it is not good
for the engine. I would not go lower then 89 give it a test. No need to
drain tank just add to whats aready in tank.

You won't hear it ping. It will retard the timing. The question is: will
you lose more in mileage than you gain in fuel savings? If it has more
than 80K or so, there's a good change your knock sensor is dead and
you're wasting money on premium anyway.
If you care for environment and possibility of CANCER for yourself/children,
continue using premium gas - less pollution/better milage/better engine
protection, yes it costs more and more, well: MAYBE you people should stop
hauling heavy nonessential things in your cars, I make 40+mpg precisely
because of remving everything possible even spar etire/wheel as I am covered
by 3-yea FREE roadside asst. (new car), maybe eat less junk, quit smoking,
walk and take trains/subway smore, ok
We Americans are called gringos for a reason, too much driving, it make sme
sick looking at fat bastards here in Brooklyn driving a few blocks to a
supermarket, why not walk, da hell the person loooks like a jelly with a
huge belly

what does "gringo" have to do with driving....did i miss something?
first you criticize people for driving too much, and not taking mass
transit, then brag about your great mileage?

Not only that, carrying no spare tire means a required visit from the
roadside assistance crew in the event of a flat tire. The ones areound
here are usually quite large turbo diesel trucks that probably burn
more fuel and harm the environment more getting to me than if I
sacraficed 50lbs and changed my own tire!
