Goodness gracious, dude, what are you smoking?

Ethanol gets crappy gas mileage under any kind of load (my experience, mind you) and corrodes anything made of rubber that it touches - like injector seals.

Besides, all that (subsidized) ethanol demand is what's causing the price increase in anything that has corn in it, including corn oil, corn flakes, fritos, and beef.

Go back before it's too late and consider a good 1/2 ton truck with a V6 or even a small V8 and some tall gears, drive like a sane person and enjoy your 20 mpg on good ol' red-blooded American gasoline.

What's not to like about that?

“American” gasoline?

It’s all purchased from Saudi Arabia! And Iran. And Venezuala...

That’s sort of my point. I want to buy American.
