Bought my first tank of ethanol tonight -- it's ~20 cents less than the cheap gasoline here. I don't know how long it's been cheaper, but I wish I'd gotten around to doing the research to find the local station sooner. Yes, "the" -- as far as I can tell, there's only one: the Regional Transportation Center. In fact, accoding the the E85 website I looked at, this is the only ethanol station in all of California. Luckily, it's not much out of my way.

I know there's been some controversy in the news lately about ethanol, but I suspect it's at least not worse than gasoline, and my truck can run on ethanol, gas, or any mix of the two.
