Default Re: Beware of new EP15 gasoline.

I believe in the last five years or so, 60 Minutes had a story on ethanol. And if I remember it correctly, they stated it took MORE energy to produce ethanol then the ethanol itself would ever produce. Think about the energy it takes to run the farm equipment used to raise corn and harvest it, the ethanol distillation process itself, the energy to produce the fertilizers used in the fields and finally the energy to transport the ethanol. IMHO, one big waste of time and money.

Sorry BlueSunoco, didn't read your post before posting mine.
