    If regular is E10, and premium is ethanol free, how would blending the two result in ethanol free fuel?

    I don't doubt that most gast stations do this. I just don't think they'd be able to claim ethanol free if there were ethanol fuel in the blend.

    I worked as a gas station clerk before.
    We don't know anything.

    People liked to complain to us about the gas prices, like the money was going in MY pocket. lol

    I made $7/hr

    Big mistake by admitting you were a gas station clerk. Now we know who to blame.:rofl:

    I buy it all of the time and never had a bad tank. I think they sell a lot of mid-grade in Appleton.

    On the way back from Wyalusing, I stopped for gas at the Kwik Trip in Dodgeville...they had corn-free 87! And it ran real well!

    I used to deliver to the gas distribution place south of Rosendale. The tanker trailers have multiple compartments, so they can carry different grades and/or alcohol levels. If I'm understanding correctly, the alcohol is the last thing they add to the tank to complete the blend in each compartment.

    There used to a gas station in Madison that only sold 100% real gas. It was roughly 8% higher in cost, but ALF got 12% better mpg's.

    Don't know about various marketing claims. But both stations I ran never carried "mid grade" they always just blended from the regular and premium tanks. I've been told that everyone does this lol

    The mix comes in when the truck when loads.

    Technically if advertised as free it has to be.

    Every flavor gas station does not have a terminal.

    Here's the 91 mile route Pat and I took through Eau Claire and Clark County Forest. (In red) (pink and light blue is TWAT)
    I have more routes and more ground we can cover. The route we took was some of my existing routes with some added exploration in between.
    Screenshot_20250421_082729_Gaia GPS.jpg
    I still have some work to do on some existing routes, to find ways through and clear out trees. In order to add a little more excitement and get a 2 day event built out of the routes.
    Using Coon Fork Campground as a base.

    Not to get ahead of myself but those little droplets of precipitation, in this pic, might have made Sunday an unofficially official T.W. event? :rofl:
