It kills fuel lines and systems and becomes MORE corrosive the greater percentile of enthanol introduced.<br /><br />Second, ethanol is LESS energy efficient than straight petroleum.<br /><br />And third, at a time when Mr Obama and the EPA want maximal CAFE ratings, you are guaranteeing FEWER miles per gallon with ethanol, due to its energy INEFFICIENCY.<br /><br />Finally, the corn diverted to ethanol is that amount of corn NOT being used for human consumption.<br /><br />It is STUPIDITY in the name of jerking off the American public and fulfilling promises to the Religious Leftists in the nation.<br /><br />Google "MTBE" in Fornicalia and see what you get. THAT was lorded as a great Religious Leftist/EPA idea as well. It resulted in EVERY underground tank from EVERY gas station in Fornicalia being ripped out at OWNER EXPENSE.<br /><br />BZBloviating Zeppelinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01359816456769157176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-20336501780243494152011-08-19T03:56:00.494-05:002011-08-19T03:56:00.494-05:00Cube,

Its corrosive and has a natural affinity for water that makes it impossible to ship by pipeline. Activists always tout its supposed cheaper price and cleaner burn but a gallon of alcohol produces far less energy than a gallon of gasoline.

Had I been driving the Mustang that day, I'd not be here at all, I'm sure.<br /><br />I drive as if I have a raw egg under my right foot, so I get decent gas mileage out of a car with a huge engine.Always On Watchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08192688822955022541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-11268977674832163412011-08-18T09:43:25.282-05:002011-08-18T09:43:25.282-05:00AOW-- My poor Crown Vic as well.
