Question for the board- Here in VA we have been going through some fuel shortages. It is getting better, but a coule of time I have actually had to go out in search of gas to fill my tank, as all the stations run out of all grades. They blame the shortage on the supply line--not enough ethanol-mix fuel to go around. Anyways-- My ST and the wife's 300M Special are not FFV vehicles. How will this effect our cars in the long run?? I thought that the difference between FFV and not was the type of line it used (rubber/plastic not affected by the ethanol in FFv vehicle?) All the stations are now posting signs saying 10% ethanol, all grades on thier pumps. This is my favorite quote from a local news paper:
"Mechanics and federal officials insist there will be no effect on a vehicle’s engine and only a minimal decrease in how far you can go on a tank of gas, but consumers likely will see an increase in gas prices."
So what hey are saying is I'll pay more to go not as far?? Is this right?? :wacko:
Also--anyone know if the '07 will be FFV friendly in the V8 version??
