I have been a long time supporter of E-85. But lately the pricing doesn't add up. I guess I am disappointed with the hole thing. If I were to run my truck on E85 100% it costs me more $$ than regular gas... due to the MPG difference between fuels. this is on a E85 compatible vehicle.. Lately the price difference between E85 fuel here in MN has been between 20 and 40 cents... To make it an economical choice it has to be at least a 75 cent difference! I would run E85 if it balanced out. It still doesn't explain the high price of E85, and the low price of corn! What gives? Market demand I suppose... Just had to vent a little.. Anyway if you have a car/truck you would like to convert check out this website.
