I can run E 85 in my truck bout dollar less / gal when gas was 3.60 - 3.80/gal. I filled up made my way down to the lake. Got 1/2 the gas mileage, had to fill back up just to get back home. The stuff is CRA_.

Yep....I drive a older model chevy with the throttle body injected 350. Any amount of ethanol and my truck runs like crap and drinks gas. I hope I can keep fining ethanol free cause I hate to sell my truck.

So if a farmer has land and needs money, he should just sell his land? Just because he has capital in his land, does not mean he has money in his pocket.
Answer --- No

Back to the original question. Why is government still involved so deeply and why are we being forced to use ethanol?

Will be interesting for the next 11 months, to see just what environmental regs are put out before the current administration is out. Why just today it was disclosed energy producers will be restricted even further. In the end a lot of people will lose there jobs because coal plants can not produce and oil can not flow with this administration.

I sure hope we can get a new administration in and reverse everything. Jamming all these new unconstitutional acts are ruining our way of life and freedom. It's almost like they are trying to get we the people to fight back. Government was put into place to protect liberty,not line politicians pockets for their entire lifetime.
