Oh wait. They do. People should just try not being stupid. If you wanna use e85, try it. Other people are doing it. If your car explodes, well then that's what you get. No matter how much we discuss this it won't change anything. Read the facts, create an opinion, act upon it. Problem solved. Let's eat cake.

Trust me, that's not the logic that I'm using to say it's ok to use E85. I'm just stating that making things dummy proof for the average consumer is what many companies do.
I know some people who grew up in jersey that don't even know how to pump their own gas because it's state law to have a worker do it for you.
