Ethanol is one of the biggest scams to come down the pike in a long time. Ethanol will actually cause a decrease in mpg over non ethanol gas. A gallon of gas with a ten percent ethanol blend will not give you the same amount of power that a gallon of gas without ethanol will. So if I were you I would try to stay as far away from ethanol as I could.

X2 - sort of.

Yes, you will see a decrease in performance and your fuel economy will drop by about 10-15% in most cases (on Flex-Fuel cars)

Can't agree on the scam part though. Ethanol is a renewable energy source (from corn), where fossil fuels are not. I'm not trying to argue the peformance or fuel economy aspect of this, I just don't see it as a "scam".
