Re: E85

I guess I'm speaking for one ethanol plant here. I live really close to Stanley, WI. ACE Ethanol is a huge plant there. A shell station in Stanley sell their E85. When I checked on this, earlier this year If I remember, it was only .09 cents less than 87oct. So if it takes more of it to equal the same BTU as gasoline, then it's more in the long run. I say they are greedy because they are keeping the price within an ass hair of regular gas. True, the 15% gas is costing them more but the 85% base shouldn't be that high.

The whole reason Bush wanted an energy plan was to reduce our dependance on foreign oil because the cost of oil was so high. But if E85 isn't saving the customer any more, does it really matter who we're buying from?
