Keto asked: Has anyone had some good thoughts about it, besides it’s cheaper? Does it burn faster? Disadvantages vs. advantages please. I can buy it for $1.29 in my area and wondering if it’s worth it.

Ethanol 85 will run in your engine without any real problems, but at a lower efficiency than pure gasoline. Typically you will lose ~30-40% in terms of raw mileage if you fun E85. Compare the cost and effort from more frequent fill ups to running straight gas.
Some consideration should be given to the cooler running temperature that the higher concentration of Ethanol will give to your engine. If you live in a hot environment and have ready access to cheap E85 then it may make sense.
you wont get the gas mileage that it will get on regular gas,sometimes saving a few pennies isn’t worth the loss of power,but it will run fine on it,running regular in it will get you better mileage,you,ll probably drop 2-3 miles per gallon if you use e-85 in it,good luck
I **** this E85 stuff, its nothing new, Its just corn moonshine. Hillbillys and drag racers have been running ethanol and methanol for years. Like they said mileage will drop but it will run fine. Its a waste of money, Put an air intake kit, good plugs and keep it well maintained and you will get decent mileage. Or buy a diesel and make your own Biodiesel for 45 cents a gallon.
