Hello everyone, please excuse this dumb question but I’ve seen differing opinions on this matter so I figured I’d ask here to get y’all’s opinions.
I will be getting tuned for E85 and I plan to drive my car to/from my home to Houston which is roughly about a 350 mile drive.
my dilemma is that there are only a few stations that carry E85 along the way and I know to expect a drastic decrease in fuel efficiency. I believe it is about a 150 mile trip from Houston to the nearest E85 station on my way home.
I feel like I should still be able to make it even if I only get 10mpg on the highway since challengers have an 18.5 gallon tank.
I have a few questions.
1.) Do y’all think I need to worry about running out of fuel?
2.) To fellow members that run E85 what’s your mpg on the highway?
3.) Lastly, I wanted to ask if y’all think it would be safe if I took one or two 5 gallon VP gas cans with me and filled them up with E85? I would store them in the trunk of course. I seem to see varying opinions on this matter.
Thank you everyone for any and all input!
