http://www.nafa.org/Template.cfm?Section=Energy_Equivalents I had an interesting discussion with a friend last night. He bought a flex fuel Silverado, and told me it was supposed to get 1/2 mpg less on E85 than on gasoline. I told him that I thought a 20mpg truck would get closer to 13mpg on E85 than 19.5 mpg. He assured me I was wrong, and as soon as he put some E85 through it he'd have the numbers to prove it. I guess I know somebody who's gullible enough to believe anything a car salesman tells him. 20 mpg / 1.4 = 14.3 mpg. (would have been closer to 13 mpg if E100 were used) Mitch. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
