Default E-85 in Tampa.

LCorner of Gunn hwy and limbaugh at the new gas station. I believe it's called Thornton. They have E-85 for $3.19/gal

Maybe if it didn't cost so much it would be worth it, i'd never pay that much for ethanol.

Besides, it has to be at least 25% cheaper than gasoline to make it cost effective.

Regular gas was at $3.35 at that gas station IIRC so it was only a $0.16 cent difference. Just incase anyone is interested its the only place in Tampa that I know of that sells it. I've never used it before and I really don't even know if its safe for any of my vehicles.

Still good to know, I remember that E85 thread a few years ago with everyone wanting to buy it but no one sold it.
