Some people think they are doing the Earth a service by burning that garbage and they feel the need to exploit their vehicle's compatibility with it.

Ethanol is good for one thing in high concentrations and it's on the dyno with high compression/turbocharged engines. The detonation resistance is a good feature, but the stoichiometric air/fuel ratio is so ridiculously low that it takes A LOT of fuel to run correctly. Since you have neither a turbocharger or high compression, there would be zero gain from running it (or spending the money on an E85 calibration).

Like Longshot said, if I wanted your money, I'd tell you it was AWESOME!!!!

But it's not.

Ethanol, it's corny. (I stole that from the Cohron family.)
