The term identifies a specific type of gasoline, one that does not contain ethanol, sold at a particular brand of gas station. For example, drivers seeking fuel without ethanol additives may specifically look for this product at a Maverick gas station.
The absence of ethanol can be important for certain engines, particularly those in older vehicles, small engines (like lawnmowers), and some boats. Ethanol can degrade rubber and plastic components in these systems, leading to maintenance issues. Furthermore, fuel economy may be slightly improved due to the higher energy content of pure gasoline compared to ethanol blends. The availability of this type of fuel provides a choice for consumers concerned about these factors.
