Too bad your car can't run on E85. For some reason, the price of E85 around me (if you can find it) has gone up and down along with the gasoline prices. At the station you photographed, the price of E85 is about half the price of regular. By my logic, since E85 is only 15% gasoline, it should have been barely affected by the increases in gasoline prices.
I just got rid of our Durango, but it was flex-fuel, and I thought about trying to use E85 when the prices went up, but it wouldn't have made any difference here. With the cost difference in SD, it would make a huge difference, even considering the lower mpg of E85.
california voters keep re electing the people who caused it . elections have consequences. Biden cancelled the pipeline his FIRST DAY in office, and has made it much more difficult to drill, refine or transport oil. yall keep electing these democrats, and act surprised when gas prices go up. gas prices ALWAYS go up when democrats are in power, because they always try to stop oil production yall elect a party that killed the pipeline , and now hes over there licking the boots of the saudi's begging them to increase their oil production. the very same saudi's that attacked us on 9/11 if you voted for biden or a democrat, dont complain about high gas prices. you got what you wanted. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Slszva6kk90
I didn't vote for any democrat, I get to complain. The USA was EXPORTING oil during Trump presidency... oil production was so damn high, the price of oil was reversed to 35 dollars a barrel to TAKE it. Anyway, California has been democrat for a very long time, even though Arnold did get elected, things didn't change much By the way, pipelines have always leaked, simply facts alone show oil companies are not interested in safe oil transport, or you can pretend you've forgotten the Deep Water Horizon, in 2010. Greed ruined statesmen, ruined social security, and the pensions of all the Enron employees. Instead of a safe pipeline, built by the people who would be affected by it when it leaks, it's low bid contract work by people who won't learn of it's eventual success or failure. If the people who would be affected by it's failure built it, the odds would be drastically changed to reduce the chances it might ever fail
I agree with you 100%, pipelines leak, but not as much as train tanker cars, which is how oil is transported if there is no pipeline. the deepwater oil spill was horrible, but think about WHY they were drilling in water that deep: they were doing it because the govt wouldnt allow them to drill on land or in shallow water, which is much safer, because you can actually see what youre doing. we should be drilling everywhere, bringing down the cost of oil would help everyone, except OPEC.
the video I posted shows Biden saying "I guarantee you I will end fossil fuel" California and other liberal leftist democrat run states have banned the sale of internal combustion vehicles starting in 2035, affordable energy is what makes modern life possible, and democrats want energy to be as expensive as possible , its not about the environment, its about control, they want everyone driving electric cars, with limited range, and no way to charge them because the grid cant handle it, and they dont want to build more nuclear power plants, nuclear is safe and clean, but liberals dont want safe clean energy, they want NO energy, well at least no energy for US, im sure Al Gore will always have plenty of juice at all of his mansions, his many mansions use more electricity in one month than a normal home uses in 30 years, and will still burn plenty of fuel in his private jet
,a new late model gasoline or diesel vehicle produces almost zero emissions, you can run a new honda accord or mustang in a closed garage for hours, but the liberals arent happy with the achievements that have been made and wont ever be because its all about controlling the peasants, not about protecting the environment,
the germans produced oil from coal almost 100 years ago, this country has the largest coal reserves on the planet, why dont we have any coal to oil plants?
the US department of energy was created in 1977 , in response to the 1973 arab oil embargo , to help the US become energy independent. how much taxpayer money has been wasted by that useless department since then? we are just as dependent on arab oil now as we were in 1973, as demonstrated by our president going over there to beg them for more oil, just mere months after he cancelled the pipeline that would have helped us be less dependent on foreign countries who hate us to sell us oil. we buy oil from the people who attacked us on 9/11, most of the hijackers were saudi. if the US dept of energy wont help make us not dependent on arabs for the oil, the department should be abolished.
sigh, nothings ever gonna change . its like its 1979 all over again. weak president begging arabs for oil, russia attacking neighbors, super high inflation, etc. pretty sure the nuclear plant in Georgia thats still not finished was being built in 1979 etc.
I feel for you non liberals stuck in california, the only thing you can do is pack up and leave cause I dont think things will ever change. the liberals in californa that caused all this should be fenced in and forced to live with what theyve created. forever.
This was all over the BBC yesterday and might help explain some of it.

Only one of many reasons to vote red in November.
