Nice post Justin. E85 is great stuff. Luckily for me I don't have to store any yet. I am though looking for an easier way to store it for road trips. For now I'm just going to be filling up a lot of 5-6 gallon fuel tanks to take with me.

This would be my question too, there must be a legal limit for this type of transportation.
