Re: $3.35 Wtf

im not trying to support not tapping into the wells now, but my friend brought up an interesting point today. If we wait and dont tap into the wells and then the rest of the world runs out or nearly out, guess what...we have all the oil thats left and we become rich!

Doubt that would work since the oil companys have more power than our government....

Re: $3.35 Wtf

a few gas stations have switched to 85 ethanol without telling, in kentucky they didn't have to tell anyone that they did....i hate hearing the statement "if we didnt buy gas on (insert day here) then they would have to lower the prices." that is the stupidest comment i've ever heard and just want to have everyone who says that a mental evaluation.....end rant......it's $2.85, $2.95, $3.05 here, i've paid more though and will continue to pay it no matter what it costs and will always want the fastest car around...

Re: $3.35 Wtf

i just did a research paper on alternative fuels including e-85
here is a link with stats on using e-85;
http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/byfueltype.htm
it shows data from most 2006 flex fuel vehicles including mpg on both fuels, emissions on both fuels, and average running cost on both fuels. also, whatever distance ur vehicle can go on 1 gallon of gas, u would need 1/3 more ethanol to go that same distance. i've also herd of serious power loses when using this fuel.

e-85 is mixed with 15% gasoline to help with cold starts.
