Woohoo. E85 station near my house

tweakmonkey · 08-23-2008, 01:32 AM

Well, 40 minutes away. One is opening up about 15 minutes away next month, too.

I would probably upgrade the injectors in my Talon for this stuff, and run a lot more boost.

But really, damn you. a 60mpg car and now one that will run on e85.

There are a few around my house, my van runs on it, but it's never cheap enough to be worth it.

E85 is a shame, but with that said any shame that allows me to run more boost is a shame i'm willing to support!

good luck Dan! You'd probably have to go stand alone to really be able to take advantage of it though.

Really? The stuff is usually at least a dollar cheaper than gas here.

Xen,
I'd also be curious to hear what it costs out there. I haven't trekked out to the station I mentioned yet but heard it's about the same price of gas here.

At the station a mile away from my house:

Regular $3.79
E85 $3.27

For the cost per mile to be equal in my van, E85 has to be 25% cheaper than Regular
