whoa! so your saying e85 came out with expectations of it being only a temporary solution? i can live with that but i'm worried about people getting lazy and leaving that as the main power source.

and im definately exagerating the corrosiveness of ethanol. you wont see anything wearing out in your motor right away but a couple years straight of e85 will require some new parts. im pretty sure ethanol has no effect on aluminum too.
