Bottom line.... For the same amount gasoline still expends more energy than
Ethanol... Than means that more ethanol is needed to get the same amount of
power as gasoline...
Better mileage is definitely not gonna happen with E85
Ethanol does burn cleaner... That's one reason it's being pushed... Another
is government subsidies to corn growers...
E85 is just a way to stretch out gasoline usage...
Kind of like when bars try to water down the booze to make more money per
bottle...
