1. EPA gives final approval to E15 for MY2001 and newer vehicles. For the first time ever, Americans driving conventional vehicles will be provided the opportunity(??<<<or will it be legislated?... ) to choose ethanol blends in excess of 10 percent. <<<There goes your mpg numbers downward... While a strong argument could be made for the end of the tax incentive as the year’s top story, the impact of an expanded market through E15 blends will have an exponentially greater impact on the U.S. ethanol market than the temporary adjustment caused by the end of VEETC.

my truck is flex fuel, and I never put in E85 because it kills my MPG and my HP, and only saves about 10c per gallon in my area

The worst invention ever - it destroys most 2 cycles engines, and has wrecked havoc on automobiles for a long time

What is the benefit ? Less mpg? Costs more overall in maintenance ?
