Really? I didn't know that. Oh, well, it's not like we have any E85 pumps down here anyway.

E85 supposed to be good for the FlexFuel 4-7 Well, not good, but 'ok' to use. Ya pay less per gallon, but get less mpg's.... so kinda pointless. But I havent been able to experience this personally on my "Flex", as there aren't any e85 pumps round these parts either...

All we have is e85 in WI except for some premium pumps at B-P North of Fon Du Lac. It sucks, and kills my mpgs by almost 1.5. Just hauled an 8,500 lb trailer of busted concrete home from a job. Slow but steady. I love it.

Sorry, Meant E10. You can still get straight Gas if you buy premium, though.

I use E10 on a regular basis. Its usually rated for 89.5 to 90.5 octane and it certainly performs well with boost.
