The benefits of corn

We recently found out that our Suburban will run on E85 gas. That's a gas that is blended with up to 85% ethanol. Not only does it get about the same gas mileage it also costs .45 cents per gallon less than regular unleaded gas. And that's a savings of $13.00 per tank. And when you fill up once a week (which will be the case when school starts) that's a savings of over $600 a year.

Funny, I don't remember Georgia selling E85 blended gas.
