If you doubt it, drop me a line, I know a fleet of e85 and blended hot rods that will blow the doors off their gasoline counterparts. Also, e20-e30 blends have shown about 10% greater mileage than gasoline or ethanol by itself. (in cars already on the road, now, not in the future) see http://www.ethanol.org/pdf/contentmgmt/ACE_Optimal_Ethanol_Blend_Level_Study_final_12507.pdf So if we could replace 20% of the gas used by using ethanol, we'd pick up 10% increase in mileage, further reducing the gasoline being use. This is a perfect situation because it allows a somewhat gradule change over. Actually Josh you do get more power out of an ethanol engine than you do gasoline.
