Many vehicles are now designed for E85. Get rid of the subsidies and let the market vote. I’m for choice.
“Many vehicles are now designed for E85.”
Check the BTU per gallon difference between E85 and gasoline.

When truly allowed to exist, real “free markets” take away power from politicians. They can’t have that!
As to choice - I agree. Remove the subsidies and price supports, as well as the mandates for Ethanol. Then let the market decide. If people want to burn ethanol - if it makes them feel all warm and fuzzy... then great! It is like those electric and hybrid vehicles - do NOT subsidize the manufacture and sale of them, take away the tax credits for buying them - and let them compete on an even platform. Let consumers decide.
And If I want to buy a big truck with big horsepower that burns a bunch of gas (or diesel) - I should be able to, right off a dealer’s lot - and no manufacturer should be penalized because their “fleet efficiency” isn’t a certain level.
