I just filled up the truck with E-85 at $2.85/gal. The price of regular was $2.96/gal. Yea it gets fewer miles/gal but it runs great. As a user of avation gas, this is great news. Rejet my carb and I can use the 100++ octaine E-85 at 2.85 instead of paying 4.00++ for aviation gas. What is not to like? And we start sticking it to those folks that have us over a barrel!

Bill, see my previous post

I edited it and added an article from the EAA which pertains to aircraft fuel. Note the possible problems for higher altitudes and lower temperatures. It may not matter for your lawn mower or your car but if you are flying a small aircraft, it is critical. Some aircraft do have fiberglass tanks.
