The Farm Lobby is alive and well. I like how the ethanol industry is apparently touting it as an optimal blend for fuel economy. The specific energy of ethanol is significantly less than that of gasoline, therefore the greater the percentage of ethanol in your fuel the worse your MPG. Hence why there is separate fuel economy labeling for E85, the MPG is significantly worse. My S8 gets approximately 10% better MPG when I fill up at the no-ethanol gas station, though I would use their product regardless based simply on principle. Yet another example of our government forcing an agenda on the people that is in no way beneficial to us.
