The difference in mpg between fuel with 10% ethanol and 0% ethanol is about 3%. The price difference between fuel with 10% ethanol and 0% ethanol is greater than 3%. Regardless, it is all in the noise range and not worth worrying about.

Plus, I love the convenience of villages garages golf cart gas stations.
