Not sure why the price is so low, and
could care less why. My vehicle can use it, I like the low price, and no other fuel is going to deliver the 10 cent a mile fuel cost I am getting with E85 in my 3/4 ton pickup.
This is how a free economy and freedom of choice is eroded.
yeah, like the freedom in my area to readily obtain E0 (regular and premium), E10, E15, E20, E30, E50, and E85. That is why I really could give a rip how the pricing works out. I can switch anytime I want to any blend or ethanol free fuel as the price changes seasonally. Within 12 miles of me, there is a dozen outlets that have ethanol free fuel at the pump. Would seem that freedom of choice is alive and well where I live. If freedom of choice has eroded in your area, that is between your and your state gooberment. So you have to decide if you want limited choice where you live or move to where freedom of choice is still paramount.
Freedom of choice to use ethers such as MTBE, ETBE & TAME was eroded nationally, as well as competitive pricing for E0 via RINs costs and trading. If you're in the USA, choices in fuel formulation have had the decision tree pruned to one limb legislatively. Your example of freedom of choice is similar to choices in political parties in totalitarian regimes where only one party is allowed by law.
You choosing to ignore this reality is similar to your use of "never" earlier this thread, as documented. Doublespeak by definition.
