Rich or poor, it's good to have money.
Here we go again.
A 10 year old video is the best you could come up with?
See ? if you did as biden said and bought a battery car you wouldn't have this problem ???
Although you will not be able to charge it and if you can, you will not be able to travel very far????
Time to get a horse or better yet a sled and a sled dog team ???
At least then you will be able to get to where you want to go ???
Wait ... what the heck happened ... I thought growing corn and making ethanol to run cars was going to save the Planet from Global warming / Climate Change ...
I even had a Chevy that would run on the stuff ... got all ready for saving the world and now they throw all that technology and promised clean energy that under the bus and say ...Battery Power .
Wake up fools ... we no longer are allowed to mine lead to make batteries with ...
Who we gonna buy batteries from our friends the Chinese ... Yeah Right that's going to work just fine .
We need to just produce our own danged oil !

I just filled my 2008 Toyota with E30
Only $3.25 at the Co-op yesterday.

a good pair of mules might be a wise investment. dont have to worry about gas or computer chips.

I don't know what E-10 is in your neck of the woods, but it is 3.299 here. I don't see E-30 at 3.25 as a bargain. What is the advantage for you?Originally Posted by JonB_in_Glencoe
Years ago we had a 2nd hand VW Rabbit that got 52 miles (measured multiple times) to the gallon of diesel. (My wife ignored the yellow dash light and warped the head on that one).
Back in the early 1970's my dad had a friend who had a Chevy Suburban that got 26 miles to the gallon. Dad challenged the validity of the gas mileage and we all went hunting one weekend - filled it to the top, wrote the start and end mileage down, refilled it to the top again and it was getting 26 miles to the Gallon.
Back in the mid 1970's I had a Chevy Impala with a 427 engine. Measured and validated numerous times - I got 27 MPG out of it (as long as I keep my foot out of the Holly 4 Barrel Carb and only used the two smaller input and not the Big 2 Barrels).
My point - We (I guess more appropriately - I) have watched 50 or so years pass and the mileage for vehicles remains the same or in many cases less (Including different class sizes) than it was "Back When". What has changed - why the federal government advocating this/that/or the other; to hell with science and measurements such as Energy units per weight (i.e. BTU's of a product); or energy loss conversions such as occurs when converting Electricity to Battery Storage and then converting to propulsion; or conversion of one energy form into another (such as hydrogen). The politicians and bureaucrats mouths are moving - don't believe any of it.

A college professor calculated that 3 times as much energy was consumed to manufacture ethanol compared to the energy ethanol would produce, pretty good return on investment according to demonrats profiting from the process
Ethanol can have it's place. However, the mandate that for fuel use it has to come from corn only is pretty stupid. I did research in the mid 1970's and it showed that ethanol could be easily made from grain dust. Grain dust is created at all grain elevators every time that grain is loaded, unloaded or moved within the elevator. Larger elevators collect the dust and store it separately in a distinct bin or bins. When they offload grain to a flour mill or other customer they meter in a certain amount of grain dust - after all they did pay for it. The end customer then has to re-clean the grain prior to use. In any case, grain dust is composed of pretty much the same components as the grain it came from, with only a slightly higher ash content. For making alcohol it doesn't need to be ground. If grain dust was utilized to make alcohol there would be some potential cost savings in processing as well as utilizing what is now considered a nuisance product. The "residue" left after alcohol production is considered as "distillers spent grains" and sold as animal feed, which could still apply using grain dust. Rant off...
I can tell you that 2 of our vehicles that are new enough to run on E15 do not like it at all. Sets the engine light off every time

Wow. I had a 1972 Caprice with a 402 4 Barrel and it did not get that mileage but set the cruise on 85 and adjust the 6 way power bench seats it was like floating down the highway in your living room.
Wish i had that car back but my friend sold the engine to someone when i was deployed who worked on it then dropped it into a Chevelle.

Mules... They will be banned due to their "personal Gas problem".

the energy and security act that was also used to boost rural economies in places like Minnesota by producing ethanol from corn was signed into law by president Bush. this was the official push to permanently add ethanol to the nations gasoline stock. but you look back at the actual history Henry Ford first ran his model T's on ethanol.
You can make good power on alcohol but it takes a lot of it. Bigger jets or injectors and it will take a lot of squeeze without detonation, great with a supercharger. Just not very efficient.
That Add Is Fake News! Bunk!!
If liars pants really did catch on fire, watching the news would be a lot more fun!
