In a lot of areas, there is only one pipeline bringing gasoline into a terminal. The tankers come in, pull into their brands lane, and their “special additives” are blended into the bulk gasoline. So if one station is getting E15, they all are.

Huh - You get it. Everybody gets the same raw gas. The “special additives” will change depending on brand - driers, cleaners, etc. They get added when the tanker fills up.

Ethanol is just another “additive” far as I know. Somebody in the business come straighten me out if I goofed on the alky. I won’t mind - honest.
