Yes, higher octane gas does give higher gas mileage for your car. However, the increase in gas mileage may not as great as the increase in the price of the higher octane gas.
There is no octane in gasoline... it is the equivalent of octane.
The gas octane that would be the best in a Honda CR-V from 2009 is 87 octane. Higher octane gas will improve its performance, but it is only necessary to have 87.
As of today, Aug. 6th, 2007, a gallon of 95 octane gas costs $5.28 at a self-service pump.
Probably, yes. Gasoline comes with different octane ratings because some engines require a higher octane to prevent pre-ignition ("pinging" under acceleration or on hills). Check your owner's manual. Also, you can experiment with lower-octane (and therefore less expensive) gasoline. If you do not experience pinging with 87 octane gas, then that is all you need.(Technically, a higher-octane gas burns slower than lesser-octane gas, but that is beyond the scope of this question.)
Not really. Fill up with the "correct" octane when you run some fuel out of your ride.

The grades gasoline are the different octane ratings, the cheapest gas has the least octane. The lower the octane in the gasoline, the faster it will burn. High performance cars need high octane fuel.
