I am not sure if the elevetion that one lives at has a bearing on the fuel octane that can be used. I once had a 89 or 90 Nissan Sentra in which the owners manual suggested a higher octane at lower elevations. I always ran the cheap gas in Colorado with no problem. When I drove to California the car started to ping. Filling with a higher octane solved the problem while at the coast.
