E85 is one of the biggest scams this country has ever fallen for. It does nothing good for the environment or economy. Also, please keep in mind that 1 gallon of gasoline/diesel is needed to make 1.3 gallons of ethanol (according to Time magazine as of this past summer; I linked to the article elsewhere on this board).
