I was wondering if I should be putting a gas treatment into my Honda for the cold days ahead?

I would contact a local Midas, Merchant's, or another professional before adding anything to your vehicle - especially since it's so new. And I definitely wouldn't put Plus or Premium in your gas tank unless your manual suggests it for your engine. For most 4-cyl or V6 engines, regular gasoline is fine. The Plus and Premium gasolines have higher volumes of carbon, which can build up in your engine and cause more problems, so check your owner's manual first, or call your dealership.

No>
if you want every other fill up you can add a bottle of any type of fuel treatment and put plus instead of regular. but gas is not affected by the cold.

No, it would be a waste of money. When you fill up, just use the gas that has 10% alcohol and it will have the same effect.

No--you shouldn,t have to, modern gasoline's already have additives added. If you get water in your gas and the car starts missing then add some ,but other than that your wasting your hard earned money.

some additives are designed to remove water from your fuel, so there is less likelihood of ice in your fuel lines. (if you live in a below freezing climate).. I doubt a newer car like yours will have problems without it.
If you're going to put a fuel additive to prevent buildup, on the other hand, try the Chevron techron fuel system cleaner every oil change.

some thing with Iso propal alcohol in it , commonly known as dry gas. but there is no need for it unless you refuel your car in a place, ware rain, snow and moisture can get into the tank, while you put your gas in.

I would reccomend using gas line anti-freeze to prevent the gas from freezing. (one small bottle per tank of gas)

yes you should,but not gas treatment.get some fuel injection cleaner.it will clean your injectors and also keep the moisture out of the tank,to keep the lines from freezing.
