Yup. Even of the stations that have it, most is poor quality: according to @BBP. We have it at all these new-built “*** & Go” station, but I was informed the quality is not good. So I drive about 25 miles round trip to fill up at an “Alta”, who sell Conoco.(but the E85 is not a Conoco product), so I’m unsure where they buy their E85, but it’s better than the *** & Go stuff.
I get mine at a Mobil about 2 miles from my house. There's also a BP and a Phillip's within 5-10 miles that have it, but it seems lower quality.

I see that there is an Alta station not that far from me that offers E85 and gets good reviews for a high percentage of ethanol, so I'll see about getting by there when the Hoe needs some go-juice. Western Convenience used to be around this part of town but seems to have consolidated away from us.

I’ve tried E85 in the past. It sucks mightily. No worth the price difference to me.

Nothing you said makes any sense to.me. E85 is cheaper, so I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. It's also weird that you are one of the only owners that have said this about E85. E85 does net less fuel mileage, but it does make more power, no matter what you say.

I smell a troll...

What sucks for you about it?

My 6.2l loves it, since it requires at least 91 octane anyway. Gets more power throughout the curve

I was underwhelmed with the lack of power. Alcohol has nowhere near the BTU per unit volume that gasoline does. At the time it was a 40 cents price difference, but I quoted Nancy Reagan and just said no.
