On a daily driver, a newer FI car that is really used every day, ethanol laced fuel is likely OK, I've never had fuel issues with the wife's or my DD's on regular with 10%.
On any car that may sit for any period of time, even just a week (and any older car even if it's a DD) I will only use pure gas.
One thing I've always noticed about regular 10% is that within days it starts to smell like it's going sour. Where as pure gas, in a sealed gas can, will last a couple months before it starts to smell off.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.
