It's called being 'conservative/frugile' rather than being 'extravagant/wasteful.'

So that's why the roads are populated with SUVs going 80 mph?
At any rate, the frugal part of Frank Lee hearts ethanol; with E10/E85 blends I notice little to no degradation of mpgs AND the E85 price break completely and unequivocably lowers my cost per mile. And even on straight E85 (keep in mind I don't own ANY flex fuel vehicles) with the sometimes quantifiable mpg drop it
still costs less per mile. Ex: last time I drove the F150 pulling the flatbed it got 16 mpg on a tank of 100% E85. It is unusual for the F150 to achieve 16 mpg towing no matter what grade of fuel is used.
