that's not including the taxes you pay for the government to subsidize ethanol production. I don't know who thought of E85, it's one of the stupidest ideas ever in automotive history.

Its only 20 cents cheaper than gas here, and awful mileage. I get 10-20% worse mileage on 10% ethanol opposed to 100% gasoline, so a flexfuel-E85 XJ would get about 4MPG?
