While driving in PA over the weekend, We noticed at or around hanover, PA a gas station which sells E85.. Woot.. I've been waiting for a location which sells E85 after we bought the Commander.. Trouble is we had a full tank by the time we seen the station.. At least now we know if we head up that way, there is an alternative..
4.7 flex here. Bought is used with 12,000 miles on it. Didn't really consider the engine at the time, I liked all the options and color. I just knew it was a V8.

I wouldnt waste your time with E85. According to everyone I have talked to and the owners manual, it burns approx. 30% faster then 87 Octane. Im not sure what the price was where you found it but when I was stationed at Fort Meade, MD E85 cost more then 87 Octane. Just wouldnt make since to run it.Originally Posted by OurJeepLife

I even took the flexfuel badge off mine. Its so sparsley found i like to think of it as mythical. When i can get my hands on a flashpack its getting flashed for 87 octane minimum.

I took my flex fuel badge off and replaced it with the 4.7 Liter badge.

I looked into getting that 4.7 badge from overseas but it was a bit pricey for the badge and shipping. I'm more of a minimalist anyway. I like to debadge things so people can guess what they are.
On my VW GLI I took everything off that identifies it as a GLI because I get all sorts of people with civics and other various cars that want to race me cause I have that model. Mine is chipped and intake. It has more HP and Torque than my V8 jeep. I can beat quite a few cars if I were to try but i think it's annoying that people try and get me to race. I like the power it has for the fact that I can run 90-100 on the freeway in 6th with my foot barely on the pedal. I darkened out the whole GLI including all chrome VW symbols which are now matte black. It looks very mysterious and rides great. Keeps people guessing.
Anyway, I got a bit sidetracked.
I can spend that money elsewhere for sure.
