We should be exporting surplus fuels, but sadly we did not try to make more efficient powertrains, when the designs have been around for years. While we argue individual agendas the climate comes ever closer to the "tipping point" claimed by many, yet we ignore solutions that could be enacted virtually instantly.
I accept ethanol for what it is, a renewable fuel source. Understand to accept something is not to endorse it. I endorse eliminating the whole sham altogether, as recommended by the EPA, Ford, and several Universities, by improving aerodynamics and powertrain efficiencies, thus reducing overall consumption by 50%. Working models were built 7 years ago.

Many blood sucking leaches
Cant remember if it's leach or leech, been reading too many posts by those on the other side of the pond!
