All you need is a couple of bad drought years in a row and we will be importing corn from China. Hmmm Lead based corn from China, then you could get rid of your catalytic converter once and for all again.
Do you honestly think this? Or are you just using it as propaganda hoping others will believe? The reason I ask is it sounds like you are arguing that E-85 is and can only be produced using Corn, and thusly E-85 is inherently flawed. If that is indeed the case, you may want to read up on what Ethanol is, what it can be made from, and how it burns better/cleaner, and helps the environment, and is even biodegradable. If you already know this...then shame on you for trying to save sales by using propaganda that you know is not true.

oh, and +2 for what Ondontii said
