I say that pulling up to 80,000lbs of anything through crowded residential
areas, over freeways, over mountain roads, & roads like those of the Feather
River Canyon (all in one day - & sharing these roads with really
unintelligent drivers) does require skills that many average or even above
average individuals do not posses.

First, I agree that you should read your OM and use what it
recommends. But I'm pretty sure in 1978 most gas stations did not
offer 87 octane. Back then there was just regular unleaded (89),
super unleaded(92/93), regular leaded (89).

Hi Jim,
Yes, but we're usually a little more successful if our team's
quarterback is also intelligent.

True. Skill and intelligence certainly compliment each other...

Skill: "You're very bright."

Intelligence: "Thanks, you do nice work."
