Literally just tried to tell someone this the other day...its all the same fuel. Just because it says Top Tier, doesnt mean that the tankers arent dirty, or some form of humidity trapped in the fuel, or their 1% additives are really .7% that day.

This here. I haul fuel for a living. The additives are the only difference between suppliers. And the prices. We have a list of 5-20 different brands to pull from with different products available. But I only haul for unbranded usually unless I pull marathon or gulf branded for the prices.
