E15

Don’t fill your gas tank with fuel labeled ‘E15' unless you have a 2012 or newer model. That leaves me out. According to Fox News, this blend of fuel is so corrosive that many auto manufactures have plans not to honor any warranty on the fuel system if this gas is used.

While the E15 grade is just now getting into the market, it may be at your favorite gas station soon. And, as an enticement, it will cost a few pennies less per gallon. But, remember when you lose the fuel system in your vehicle, it will cost a lot to repair. Another bit of information is that using the fuel will cause your buggy to get less gas mileage. Do the math. You pay a couple of pennies less, but, destroy the fuel system in your vehicle and get worse mileage.

Only the government thinks that’s a good deal.
