I LOVE anecdotal evidence, conclusions come so easily with them. The site I liked to has wonderful anecdotal stories of getting exactly the calculated mileage based on energy content.
I have made NO statements about what mileage to expect from running ethanol. Instead, I simply stated some facts for people to consider. Further, I have conceded that the higher octane should allow for efficiencies that exceed the calculated energy mileage.
My worthless anecdotal story is the greater than calculated drop in MPG when Oregon mandated E10.
I was initially excited about ethanol as a fuel, but the more I learn about it the less enthusiastic I become.
