Check out pure-gas.org ,in the comments section. Or Google ethanol free gas. Its can give a mpg increase of 3%-10%. Over the e10 thats everywhere else around here.And the automobile could run smoother.
I'm not saying this will happen to me ,but it could be worth a shot.
I still need to get more details on the specific fuel at this station.

Despite having a Flex Fuel 4.7L V8, I do not run ethanol if at all possible. Running E10 alone (without going any higher) makes me lose about 1-2 MPG on average (had to do it a few times in Minnesota because that is all they have, in every octane). That is especially bad in the winter, when winter-blend fuel + cold driving + 4x4 usage drops the mileage anyway.
