Not nobody. It's also 100+ octane. If you compare it to the cost of 104 octane unleaded gasoline, its a way better value despite the reduced gas mileage.

I pick up over 75 horsepower by running an extra 6psi boost on E-85. It's a great product for the forced induction folks. I hope it stays around.

I understand what you're saying about commercial viability as 99.9% of people don't care about the octane. But for apples to apples, it's fair to compare the price to 104 octane gasoline.
