A Dodge dealer told me it wouldn't run on ethanol without $3000 worth of modifications. LOL
I now have a semi-unmodified 2000 VW Passat wagon that I've been filling up on E85 for the past year an a half. No issues besides harder to start in cold weather. In winter I'll sometimes add three gallons of gasoline to ten gallons of E85 just to get it to start easier in the mornings.
