With Ethanol Our Gas Mileage Decreased Drastically

When our gas mileage dropped drastically, we realized the last gas station in town to hold out on ethanol spiked gasoline had succumbed. Now there was no place to buy a product that enabled us to get excellent mileage and have an undamaged engine.

For ethanol, no matter what they say, decreases gas mileage and decreases a vehicle's longevity. So, ultimately we'll use more gasoline (more dependence on foreign oil and less corn for food) and will have vehicles that wear out faster and need more repairs.

Save the planet! At what expense?
