Default An interesting little gas factoid...

I was just down getting coffee for the wife and guests from the local
coffee shop and there was a driver there from a local gas delivery
company. We got to chatting while I was waiting for the coffee and
pastry order and found this out.


And here's another interesting factoid. A vehicle burning E85 gets 2/3
the mileage of the same vehicle burning gas. Go here and look up e.g.
2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee (there are others, same story) which shows
both ... http://www.fueleconomy.gov/ Now that's not something you see
on those E85 billboards ...


E85 will have to be 70% or less of the going price of gas at the pump to
get anyone interested in buying it en masse.
