They say the line between genius and insanity is VERY thin, and I think the geniuses in Washington D.C. that came up with this plan fell LOTS of lines short of hitting the genius side of the line.....
Or someone with friends in high places is making some serious money off of this boondoggle. |
No s#!t!!!!!!! Everything I've read says it's gas mileage is not only worse but it eats your fuel lines for any car not equiped with it stock. Great huh?
Ethanol once again, is garbage!!!!!!!!! Maybe now is the time to start considering spiking the gas with pure acetone to offset the crummie ethanol!!!!
