E15... Coming to a Pump Near You

[slims]

It wont be better.

What about us folks with older vehicles will we be able to use the better stuff?

I was kinda wondering the same thing, earlier. If it's "ok" for 2001 and newer, well what about all the OLDER cars!? What the heck are people supposed to run in THOSE? Just scrap 'em all? Another big "cash for clunkers" thing, except you "have" to take the money for the old cars, to get them off the roads, so they can "move forward" with this other crap?

Everyone knows my stance on ethanol, so I'll just keep quiet

The ironic part that is the stations I've been to in corn country (Iowa, MN, Nebraska, Missouri) you can choose between fuels.

MN put in the variable ethanol pumps a few years ago and I'm seeing them around here now. You can enter anywhere from 0 to 85 ethanol content. Maybe there were a few preset notches, but still an interesting concept.

Well... you know my opinion of ethanol ... it's just a big money maker for corn producers and does absolutely no good at all for anything...

Yeah, them damn corn lobbyist...



Blame Nebraska!

And Iowa...

fWONking Iowans!!

"Big Oil" just needs to hire some lobbyists. It'd help them compete against those ruthless corn farmers.

Don't you Okies call it an EF5 tornado? It gets rid of all the old crap so you can build newer/"better" stuff in its place?
