I suppose so, but it burns me when I pay the same per gallon as fuel that gives you better mpg. Plus until they switch away from something other than corn the whole situation is pretty screwed up anyways with the govt paying farmers NOT to grow corn because they're throwing it away, then they start making ethanol out of it and the price skyrockets driving up the price of corn, cornmeal, cornbread, corn syrup and other things and now we're paying an inflated price for the corn we paid them not to grow in the first place. And its not even that great for ethanol production... :end rant:

Plus even if my car is ok running it, and I don't 100% know that it is. What about my mower, did mower designers even consider this 3 or 4 years ago? Who really knows. Etc for other applications. I know it's shelf life is diminished. They don't even sell it in marinas because its hydroscopic.
