I filled up in Dodge City, KS. With the wind blowing behind us I got 24mpg. Regular E10 gas.
We run E85 when the weather is warmer and the price difference is wide enough. Has to be about 60% of the regular to come out.
In the cold it starts hard an runs rough until the engine warms up. I tried it at Christmas time in MN. E85 was 1.02/gallon. About 3 below.
