i dont it is more exspensive to produce, as it is from farm grown ,renewable sources, and from what i hear states that have it now are hovering the 2 dollar mark, which is alot cheaper then the 3 dollar premium right now.

yes..it is not as efficient as gasoline. But it has a very high octane rating, which you can use to your advantage by increasing your compression and timing, which can offset some of that 25% .
the point is you would not need as much to make the same power now.

dont forget about the biggest benefit. less and less dependency on foreign oil.

right now other dictators and countries control our fuel costs.

using only 15% gasoline, im pretty sure we can depend soley on our sources for oil.Thats what the most important point.

so what if you end up spending a little bit more to get the same mileage. the money you spend goes to US companies and farms, not the saudis or the iranians.

some of you out there speak like there is never going to be an end on our dependency on gasoline.

do you think it will be 3 dollars forever? Im pretty sure with all the politcal turmoil it will rise beyond what you could even fathom,sooner then you think. and our current goverment wont do shit to help you.

Im pretty sure as this catches on, refining will increase as so will storage capacities.

im all for it.

most of us on these boards will be more them smart enough to convert their cars on their own.
