Should I run e85 2006 Silverado 5.3 (L59)
All the signs are there that my truck is cable of running e85. But for some reason I keep having second thoughts of feeling up e85 when I'm at the pump. Can somebody ease my Conscience. I guess I'm just worried about if the fuel system transitions smoothly between 87 and e85

Can you? Yes, you can.
Should you? Doubtful. E85 does have some advantages. But you'll use about 20-25% more of it. In Colorado gas is $2.07, and E-85 is $2.00. It would cost a lot more to run e-85. But, if it's hot and muggy and you're hauling a heavy load, the e-85 will run cooler and help prevent detonation.
Your call, though.
