Texas. I don't know whether Costco's supplier has been putting ethanol
in their gas for years and Costco just didn't tell us, or their supplier
started using it and they posted it, or Costco changed suppliers and the
new supplier does and they posted it, or ????
10% doesn't sound like it should hurt my fuel economy much. It's hard to
tell since it's finally starting to cool off a bit here and I don't have
to use my A/C when I drive to work at 06:30 everyday. Driving with the
A/C on usually costs me 2 - 3 MPG on my mostly highway driving.
