<<The state legislatures, and some in the US Congress are trying to push E85 on us. The 10% mixture is not controversial.>>

The 10% works fine and I haven't seen a gas line freeze up since 1974 when it was mandated here. Remember Heet?

The E85 is a joke. Flex fuel. Can't get the best out of either. To burn alcohol in an engine it has to have a higher compression ratio but if you put gas in it, BOOM. That would mean alcohol only vehicles and more alcohol pumps. They did it in Brazil.
