That's a great setup. If I were going to do it, I'd definitely do the flex fuel sensor deal, that's the only way to fly on this stuff because the percentages vary too much at the pumps.

Didn't know you have Sunoco stations in Texas. I sure miss Sunoco back East. Those are non existent in Arizona. In fact E85 is about impossible to find anywhere out here.. I can google a handful of stations that pop up with an E85 search but there are a couple of problems with that. One is the few stations that pop up are mainly centralized along the I-17 corridor so you can't stray too far from that, meaning more than 100 miles in any direction is out of the question (I'm 30 miles from I-17 to start with). The second problem is when I visit those stations there is no E85 to be found.

It's been nearly 2 decades now since they really started pushing that stuff and it's still not readily available everywhere. Especially the further away you get from the corn belt. For that to really be a viable option for us, it would have to be available at every station state wide and even country wide considering all the driving we do.
