They don't sell the e10 or e85 at the Marina. Because it will kill your engine, and you don't want get stranded in the ocean. Germany tried it for two years then outlawed the sh!t.

and who was the mofo that signed it into law? it was bipartisan supported because it sounded good, and most people aren't educated enough to know any better.

Relatively new product to monitor ethanol content:

Evo owners have been using E85 with great success for years. yields another +40awhp/+80awhtq on stock turbo.

The moral is: politicians/law makers don't know anything about the laws their putting into place. All it takes is a smooth talker with some powerpoint slides who promises a few more votes if a certain bill passes and viola~
