E85 is normally about 15% cheaper plus the difference from having to run 91 or greater octane anyway with the car and you wind up with pretty much the difference.
My point being that I think our conversation about E85 is a mute point due to the cars requirement of high octane anyway. It's cars that run on 87 that don't seem to make up the difference.

Yeah, it has been documented by people running E85 on our cars that its basically a wash between E86 lower MPG and E85 lower price, so its no benefit or advantage to either fuel type price wise. My point was not to keep debating the merits and cost savigns/money waste was E85, but that quantity of fuel can be measured as "fuel economy".
