Default no more E85

E85 is now E54 in AZ and was wondering if this is going on anywhere else.

Humm, just did a quick google search and looks like AZ is the only state doing this. I'm gonna guess it's a fuel mileage thing. From my playing with E85, I seemed to be able to get most of the same E85 benefits from running it 50/50 mixed with 91 so probably still almost as good as long as you re-tune for it. Pick up some mileage too.

I can't even get E85 here... one station 55 miles away and they want $.25+ MORE per gal then 92! SMH

Being that it's winter here now basically, E85 isn't around anymore but it's something like E60-E70 and still about 1.50 a gallon.

Haven't read anything like what AZ is doing and doubt they will here.
