Nate1647545505 Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Why? So you can burn through it 30% faster? It's almost just as much to fill up because you have to fill more often, maybe not in WI, but think about what all else will be effected if we made an effort for E85 to meet demand. There are way more negatives than positives about E85... The United States needs to become a more independent nation like it used to be And the majority needs to speak up against the environmentalist minority instead of bitching on message boards like me. It's our country and WE (not the president) need to step up and do something. It's OUR fault not the president's that we are having the issues we are facing today. I'm sure there will be some flaming, but the general public IS the majority....not the government. Before you jump on Phil and beat your war drum he was just wishing he had a source for the poor man's race gas. He's a pretty bright young lad.

HotCarl Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 30 x $4.00 = $120 I think "250's" was plural, meaning more than one F-250? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
