Here in Oklahoma some fuel has ethanol in it but more and more stations proudly display signs and have stickers on the pumps declaring NO ETHANOL ADDED 100% gasoline.
Ethanol is a boondoggle disguised as a save the planet effort.
There is little net energy savings with respect to fossil fuel and it does little or nothing to reduce dependence on foreign oil imports.
You can choose to not accept the reports available on the topic because they don't agree with you but the preponderance of the available evidence is overwhelmingly in line with the idea that ethanol is essentially a hoax brought to you by politicians buying votes while pretending to do something for the environment.
Even Consumers Reports featured an "Exposé" of ethanol.
I know people who are waiting for color TV to be perfected before they put the B&W set aside. This is approximately the same mentality of those who think ethanol is a good deal.
