33.0 mpg with E30
I boosted my ethanol content to an estimated 30% at the Wexford GetGo station. I then drove home on the same route as previously used and netted a 33.0mpg. It is in the upper 80's for temperature and the traffic was heavier than usual. Gas was $2.69 while E85 was $2.59.

E25 nets 34.7 mpg

Stopped again at the Wexford GetGo station for a splash blend of 1.25 gallons E85 followed by 3.12 gallons of E10 that filled my tank. Drove home on a slightly different route and netted 34.7 mpg as shown in the photo. This was with my low rolling resistance tires. Temperature was 75F during this drive.

Stopped at the Wexford Getgo for all 1.7gallons of E85 which topped off the tank at near an E20 blend. Then drove home with one stop at the local Staples store. My Ford dash recorded 35.4 mpg for 27.7 miles of driving. I'm pleased with the results. Going in the dealership on Saturday to replace a broken ABS tone ring sensor and other minor mainetance items. I will also pull off my Goodyear Fontera Triple Tread tires and replace them with the low rolling resistance Contential EcoPlus tires that I use in the warmer months.
