Has anyone done any real testing on the differences they have had with E10 vs. straight gas?

You know, I have been seeing things on Discovery for years about our shrinking farm land and our expanding population. It seems very shortsighted to me to start placing the demands of the fuel supply onto the food supply.

It does not seem to be the answer to me. People can get 25mpg, burn E85 and feel good about it. They can feel that they are "doing their part". I have to call BS!

Honda had an answer to this with the Insight. Suzuki had a lesser answer with the Swift/Metro. Toyota has small answer with the Prius.

GM had THE answer with the EV1! Of course the EV1 only worked for 90% of people. Well, boo-hoo.

We need to change WHAT we drive as much as HOW we drive. Trucks and SUVs are work vehicles, not commuter cars.
