Tahoe + E85 = Alternative Fuel Vehicle

[AAHTahoe]

hey Bro, You know of any places to get E85 in the valley of the sun?

The only place I know of in Phoenix is a pump used by a local government agency for their vehicles. The next closest is Tucson and there are about 6 stations that sell E85 to the public. There may be other places but I have not heard of them.

the funny thing is that there is an E85 plant in Maricopa but no where to buy it. within a 60 mile radius.

We need sugar based Ethanol and the technology needs to evolve more.

 

[Rollin Thunder]

we need cars that run on air:smilielol:

 

[Gambler]

What do you mean? Have you ever tried running your car without air?

They (AZ Gov) have not offered the distributors enough money to start truckin it. When the price is right it'll be on every corner.

Actually your air won't even come on below about 38 degrees.

So then why would anyone want to use it? Nothing but bad reviews.

Id rather pay an american farmer than the already rich oil guys

That is the main reason right there, that and I am confident that we will find ways to improve the efficiency of Ethanol.

i think we need to develop a salt water powered car :sla:

or make our own oil some how.

i saw on the news one night, that the middle east makes enough money selling oil to buy 100% of GM in TWO DAYS. :mad3:

Now that pisses me off.

Off-topic, but Rollin Thunder I bought the brand new, 2008 535i tonight. I decided to go with it instead of the X5 because I'm on the interstate most of the time. I figured I may be more comfortable in a sedan instead of an SUV on I-20 all the time. I can take my Tahoe when I drive to the lake, it'll give me an excuse to still drive it .

I haven't taken pictures of it yet, it was dark when I got home with it, but this one on ebay is identical.

good for you, i am still deciding, but waiting for my tax return ( i expect it to be a nice chunk of change) and i have narrowed it down to the land rover, charger, buick enclave, or cts-v
