At my work we run some Ford vans that are flex fuel capable, so we decided to try it for a couple of weeks. They got about 20-30% less mpg than on gasoline, but there seemed to be a bit of an increase in available power from the throttle. Problem is, the only station near the yard that sells it is the only station that sells it for nearly the same price as gas. There are several in town that are cheaper than that, but not 30% cheaper. Until that happens, we ain't using it.

I will say the stuff smells to me like if Corn Pops made a liquor!
