Someone here buy a FFV Malibu 4c 6 speed auto or a Saturn Aura with the same engine package, I can't believe they drop from 33/23, wife suburban gets 83% of mileage on E85 of E10. I'm running 0% ethanal thru the Stratus as an experiment for the next tank or 2.

Going from E10($0.11/mile) with the Stratus to E30($0.106 mile) dropped to about 93% mileage. After the E0 test is complete, will do 3 tanks of E20, then start pushing up to E35-40-45.

I really don't care if we use most of our corn to make ethanol, why ship it overseas to ship petrolum back. I'd rather use 80% of the kernel to make ethanol, use the other 20% to feed cows and ship beef overseas. Why ship cheap raw material when you can ship expensive finished product.
