My book calls for 87 octane fuel. Are there any benefits in me running
a higher octane? Will it hurt? Not my daily driver so the cost doesn't
matter to me.
Are there any brands that you all swear by? Are there any that you
swear against?!!!

In short - if it's not pinging, there's no point in using a higher
octane.
Will it hurt?

Usually no, but it may dirty up the insides a bit more.

My three vehicles run just fine on anything as long as the octane
requirements are met.

 None that you'd notice with the V6... possibly 89 if you're getting any
pinging...
