From what I have read, E85 reduces fuel economy in most vehicles by about 20%. In my state, (North Dakota), they have reduced the state sales tax on E85 by about 20 cents per gallon in an attempt to get more people to use it.
I would like to see ethanol compete on an equal basis with gasoline, with all of the input costs factored in, and not be so heavily subsidized by the taxpayer through tax breaks and farm subsidies. The linked article below (at least I hope it links: http://www.answers.com/topic/e85) is pretty interesting. It indicates that the Saab biopower actually gets better fuel mileage on E-85 than gasoline.
John.
