Actually, California was one of the first states to mandate winter/summer gasoline (winter was Oct. 1 - Feb. 30 or something like that). I remember the winter stuff gave slightly less mileage vs. the non-winter stuff. When it first came out, the winter additive was MTBE or something like that, but I remember mileage was worse in the winter, which was questioned as defeating the purpose of cleaner gas.
