However, while the E15 rollout can lower prices, ethanol does contains less energy than gasoline, so eventually with E15, a driver will end up burning more fuel for the same amount of distance, albeit fuel which is slightly cheaper than standard gasoline.
MAGAs are dumb enough to think they’re getting some kind of deal
Ethanol also rots the internal works of your vehicle so vehicles will disintegrate and people will be forced to buy new vehicles in 2027+ which will all have mandatory big brother spyware.
Dude you could run those things off dirty vegetable oil and they’d still go. The only things more indestructible than a '90s Civic is a Corolla from any year.
I monitor gas mileage in my truck pretty closely. Even resetting the fuel trims and running a couple tanks, E15 doesn’t really change mine that much over E10, maybe 1 mile per gallon less. Now on the other hand E85 is closer to 5-6mpg less. It all depends on how much less it costs at the time, but overall E15 is slightly cheaper for my use case. Any savings I might have is more than taken away by filling up my equipment, diesel is crazy now and no ethanol gas is right behind it.

I’m also concerned a lot of them will drink it.
“I used to only fit $50 of gas in my truck, now I can fit $100. Lol checkmate libs”

Most vehicles made past about 2004 are all ethanol safe up to maybe E20. You ideally shouldn’t, but e15 won’t ruin them.
Anything older though… God have mercy on your soul.
Those '90s civics still puttering around finally gonna get put in the grave.
They’d probably just go through a fuel pump and a fresh filter and then be fine lol.

Or a Hilux. Or a 90s Nokia.
