It all depends of if you are willing to drive an hour and a half every time you need more gas. If you have enough room to store 100-200 gallons at a time then i do think it is worth it.

It really is like running race gas all the time. All you need is a 255, some bigger injectors, and a tune.

But as of now it is not very realistic for most people to do.

I was talking about round trip, you have to come back right In Mikes car he is getting about 19 miles per gallon on e85. On pump gas even with his 1200cc injectors he gets the same mpg as he did with stock injectors. If you plan on doing this you will want to get a few 55 gallon drums and something to use to pump the gas out of them. You will also need access to a trunk.

It really is not the most practical investment, but it sure is fun!

If you want e90 you are going to have to start buying 500 gallons of e98 and mix your own e90.

But on that topic if there was ever enough interest in getting alot of e98 up here, i would love to buy 500 gallons at a time and mix my own e85 for mikes car. You get a lot better mix then when you use the pump e85
