Will a "flex-fuel vehicle" run on dried poodle dung? Not yet. But it does run on E85 — an interesting new fuel that's beginning to show up in a number of places around the country. What's the scoop on E85? Will it suddenly liberate us from global warming? Financing Middle Eastern despots?  Having to project military power anywhere there are oil wells?  Is a flex-fuel vehicle right for you? Find out.

A flex-fuel vehicle is one that's designed to run on either 100% gasoline like every other car, or a mix of gasoline and up to 85% ethanol.  E85 contains 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline.

It is. It's mixed into gas in a ratio of 10% ethanol and 90% gasoline. This mix, called "E10," represents about 10% of the gas that's sold in the US.  E10 burns cleaner than 100% gasoline, reducing smog.
