Nancy, do you grip(?) about how much it is costing you to put food on your table? Thank the ethanol producers. And, some people do not know that you have to have a system installed to burn this type of fuel. Yes, it is cheaper than regular gas, but Gary is right. If you fill up your tank, keep track of your milage. You will find that the 80 cents a gallon you are saving at the pump, will be no saving at all due to your miles per gallon will drop dramatically thus not really saving you anything. Less milage, more visits to the pump. DUH

Geez. Some people will grip about ANYTHING! It's $20 just for buying E85, which is 80 cents lower than gas and of course you must have a flex fuel vehicle to burn it. DUH

Amen "D", besides that, it burns faster (reduced milage), and is driving the cost of some foods up also. Hope some people realize that if they put this fuel in a regular car that has not been modified for this gas, and the engine componants burn up, the warranty on your car is null and void!

How much is $20 gonna buy maybe 4 gallons?? Believe me they will find a way to get ETHANOL to the price of regular gas anyday now and keep it just as high. Besides E85 cant be run in all vehicles and its bad on Engine Components
