Re: [Chrysler300] OCW article on gasoline

[1991BRG@xxxxxxxxx]

Just bought some non-ethanol 87 octane gas here for $3.54 a gallon tonight.
 I only know of two stations carrying pure gas locally.  I had 10% ethanol
gas in the car and filled up.  Mileage averaged out to 29 mpg... I normally
get 35-38 mpg out of the non-ethanol gas out of the same car.  Well worth
the extra 16 cents a gallon to get it without the 10% ethanol.  For those of
you interested check out www.pure-gas.org
