E85 Coming to a gas station in Vancouver, BC Canada

I am about to purchase a gas station in the Lower Mainland and wanted to conduct a survey to see what people in the area thought about being able to get E85 fuel out of a gas station pump without having to cross the border or buy drums or jerry cans. If you have a moment, please take some time to fill out this survey. It will help us solidify plans to bring in E85 to a gas station pump in the Greater Vancouver area.

Thanks for your time

Responded on revscene and took the survey. Really hope this happens. It would be awesome for both the evo and larger performance oriented community.

Thanks for the response. We are already getting quite favorable responses from the survey. Although this is a very specific niche market, there should be enough locals willing to pay a slight premium over 94 octane fuel to make it worth while. I know I personally would rather stop storing in drums or jerry cans!

start by doing research into the regulatory side of selling E85 in Alberta. That's one hurdle you can't jump past...

We are able to ship 208 litre drums of E85 straight from our station anywhere in canada. Cost is dependent on where the drums are going. Shipping is cheapest on minimum 4 drum purchase.

email info@arcadestation.ca if you are interested.
