I burn E-15 when it is available. Ethanol has 2/3 the energy of gasoline. Supposedly E-15 has 2 percent less energy than E-10, but I don't notice any big change in fuel mileage. Is gasoline still a cheaper ingredient than ethanol?
Today the prices at the local Kwik-Trip are:
87 E-10 (90V-10E) $2.799
88 E-15 (85V-15E) $2.509
E-85 (65V-35E) $2.749 www.kwiktrip.com This pricing does not make sense, but maybe E-15 is subsidized. I'll choose the best bargain.
Here in MN the corn farmers and ethanol producers are pushing E-15 much more than the enviornmentalists are. Every time someone suggests cutting ethanol subsidies or restricting corn fructose syrup in soft drinks the local corn producers put a stop to it.
Myself, I'd rather see the corn fed to livestock. Livestock production would be more profitable and we would be eating $5/lb T-bone steaks instead of $5/lb 80 percent lean hamburger.

Well, when our family moved to our 20 acre site near New Prague, Minnesota, I had one thought in mind. You guessed it, farm it somehow. A little history is in order. In my younger days, mom, dad and my brother made frequent visits to dad's youngest brother Pete, who took over the home farm from grandpa MIke. It was the typical set-up, milk cows, pigs & chickens. In the winter, we'd play
