I wouldn't stick to this claim very strictly. It just doesn't make sense when auto companies are incorporating alternative fuels.

The intent is to keep down the cost of the CC transaction becasue they have to pay a % of the transaction. What they probably do not realize is that when people like you and myself just do 2 transactions, they also have to pay a processing fee twice. Dumb move on their part.

DB has it correct, the subsidizing of corn to make e85 is not sustainable, therefore the price will continue to increase..

It's not just E85 going up. Gas is going up too DD. I saw on the news last week that in the next year or two gas prices are expected to 5.00 a gallon!

I expect E85 and gas to run parallel to each other!
