This is a better description of straight gas vs E85:
I had done some benchmarks mixing E10 and E85 to test different ethanol ratios using our 2003 and 2010 Prius: - straight gas - expensive and poorest hill climb performance
- E10 - much more affordable than E85
- E50 - highest ratio that did not cause a check engine light
- E85 - best hill climb performance but highest cost and threw a benign check engine code, injector on too long
