Default Fuel grades in your truck

What grade gas do you use and why? Tuning, FI, or just because.

I ran 93 ever since I got my truck. I ran a tank of 89 in there to see if there was a difference and OMG did it feel like a pig running around town. It took 2 fill ups of 93 to get it running back like it was before the one tank of 93.
