But will the price go up? If it does it will become more than useless for 99.9 percent of people. I converted my truck 3 years ago and have been using it exclusively ever since. But if the price goes up any I'm going back to gas.

you guys have this all backwards... the tax subsidy ended, which only means that the refineries will be passing on the added operational costs onto us! the 10% ethanol mandate stands, and they are actually trying to up it to 15%!!!

e85 is already useless for 99.9% of people seeing as though it gets terrible mileage and hard as hell to find.

They don't care. This is such a drop in the bucket for them it doesn't matter. My family owns midwest farm land and this won't make a dent in corn prices. The subsidy was something that needed to be dropped because the market for ethanol in the US is mature enough to stand on it's own. It won't be going away.

Thank God.
That stuff is garbage and messes up any engine it touches.
What a joke also, causing every other corn based product to skyrocket in price.
Feeds, food products, even that horrible corn syrup sweetner stuff that's killing everyone's kidneys.
Good riddance.
