The owners manual even states to not put Ethanol based fuels into the fuel tank
or there could be some major fuel system problems...

Vote the liberal democrats out in the fall 2010 election!
So much for it not turning political. I might as well say my piece before it gets locked.

It's easy to blame the evil "liberal democrats". They're an easy target. Fact is though, and I know a lotta folks aren't gonna wanna hear this - It's all the stupid farming subsidies.

"We're not making money on our farms anymore!"

"Okay, here's some money. Keep growin' that corn."

"But, nobody's buyin' it."

"Don't worry, we'll solve that problem too. And, we can dress it up as 'environmentalism' at the same time!"

Like I tried to explain. It's not "green" in the least. It's just a multi-billion dollar shell game dressed up as the right thing to do.
