well it is kind of a catch 22. Although E-85 is cheaper then regular gasoline it renders worse MPG so it is not always a great thing. Here http://www.wqad.com/Global/story.asp?S=3972760 |

It's not necesarilly worse on gas mileage. Some have gotten better mileage. It's emissions are just insanely lower because it's made from corn and other waste products. BTW, I'm not liberal and all earthy, but 60 degree whether in Tennessee at Christmas time is unacceptable. Can anyone say global warming? |
