Wow, that's ridiculous. Based on this: https://www.svtperformance.com/forum...-this.1121571/

I would say that Arizona has legislated laziness. The only reasoning mentioned is that they don't want to have to switch EtOH %s anymore as during the cold season, the vapor pressure of E85 doesn't meet EPA requirements (they have to add in additives and/or drop the E%). Now gas stations only have to carry E51 or something similar year-round.

That is very unfortunate...
