e85 cost about what 92-93octane cost.. except you get race gas results. It uses 30% more fuel then regular pump gas, so you have to keep that into consideration.

Taking out the 30% into consideration e85 is 1.90 a gal here or somewhere near. I seen it as low as 1.65.

E85 is kinda a hastle to get as the station is 30 minutes away, so I go every other Sunday and fill up the car and 10 gallons to take back home. E85 is $2.39 a gallon, while 89 oct is $2.60 here ATM. There are 3 stations near me and all are about 30 minutes from my house.

yay Freddie. I dunno how I missed this

I think you'd benefit from more timing out the top end... the power gets a bit wavy.

One thing I did forget to mention, there is now an E85 station about 5 minutes from my work, no more long drives to get the good stuff!

Great to see that more stations are opening up where you are located. Its been static here in Portland for several years.

It is weird though, they have E85 in surrounding counties, but none in Duval (Jacksonville) they have one North, South and West. I think it is because the City has a fleet E85 refueling station right downtown... I have been badgering the Navy Exchange to put in a E85 pump as of late... they have them on most bases now...
