I'm not sure about that. but I know that ethanol was going to be used as the main fuel in the Ford Model T (so my friend who was gonna get one was saying) but since gas was cheaper, they went with that instead.
Same thing with diesel. the original diesel engine was gonna be made to run off peanut oil, but diesel was cheaper so they went with that.
Sucks to think like an american huh?
