Gas stations only have room for 3 grades of gas at the most - regular, mid grade and premium. You can bet that all the stations will be switching from the current 10% mix to the new 15% mix!

This does my 1970's vehicles no good at all!!!!!

Here's a quote I pulled from an e-newletter I get on alternate fuels: "The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has given the green light for E15 ethanol to be used in vehicle years 2001-2007" Will our wasserboxers run on E15 if that becomes the fuel provided by most retailers? Seems like we're headed in that direction. Besides the obvious loss of fuel economy (my syncro dropped from 18 to 16-17 when they went to all E10), what would be other consequences?
