e85?
A gas station just opened up real close to me that is selling e85. What are the benefits/ down sides of running it? Performance and gas mileage. Thanks in advance.

A lot of local guys run it and the biggest issue I've noticed is that E85 is still uncommon at gas stations. They can't drive their cars long distances without knowing exactly where the E85 stations are located.
It's a hassle when we drive to car meets because the E85 guys always have to take some ridiculously long detour to find a gas station.

I run E85 on my other car , and it's not cheap on my pocket and i pick the places i go , even though i have 5 stations 2 miles from my house.
I will never run e85, if my ecu can't do flex fuel
it's not worth it unless it's a weekend Car.
