What about the fact that you have shorter trips because alternate transportation is rough in the winter if you walk, motorcycle, bike etc.

I don't know how you would quantify this but what about all the holiday travel and shopping that goes on from November to Jan.

Also is there really a winter blend anymore? I'm sure some parts of the US have regular gas but is not E10 just about every where now?
