I would never buy US gas. I've fixed countless cars at work with fuel related issues. We measure alcohol content and find lots of cars with 15-20% alcohol (buying regular gas, not mixing E85). Every time a customer has issues the first question we ask is did they recently fill up in the US and the answer is almost always yes. It's not possible to get over 10% in Canada (well, possible but diffidult for a gas station owner to illegally mix their own fuel). Which, BTW, is what appears to be happening in the US. I have a feeling all the stations near the border are the "dumping grounds" for poor fuel as Canadians head home.
New M cars can track octane for each tank fill. We've actually been able to match poor octane with a drivers travelling history to the US.
