Is anyone else concerned about the direction we are going with Ethanol  
and it's effect on our cars?
Here in Florida, I am amazed with the speed that our state has thrown  
it's arms around this corn based Anti-fuel. Not only will we get  
bashed on mileage but I fear our engines will suffer.
Tell me I'm imagining a scenario that puts us off the road.

You will lose 2%-5% fuel mileage using 10% ethanol.

Decrease our independacy on oil??? That is to funny.

Ethanol contalins 76,500 BTU (1 gallon)
The amount of energy it takes to make ethanol is 98,000 BTU (1 gallon)

Looking for gas stations without E10,
