RE: HUMMER E85 H2 FTW?
wonder how steady the price is, the only reason its reallly offered is because of the tax breaks the companies get (and Ive heard the CEO of GM mention that) and because its environmentally friendly.... but if the price of E85 was steady enough (probably isnt (85% gas)) then eventually with the increase of gas prices and the "cheaper" price of E85 would outweigh the loss of MPGs but that isnt happening because I imagine E85 prices are just about as steady as gas prices

MPG goes down, performance can go up, but until it feels good on the pocketbook every week, people won't change.

backwards - e85 is 85% ethanol, 15% gas -- so the real deals will be when they're able to create cheaper ethanol -- which may be coming.
