That and you get worse millage with ethanol.
I never quite understood the ethanol pushing for that very reason:
consumer: "that's nice and all but i'm getting LESS millage for my money?...wha?"

You're getting less distance per volume, whether you get less distance per money or not depends on the price of E85/100.
For instance, when I was pootling through Sweden in a rented V70 E85 it was cheaper by the litre to pick E85 over petrol.
It isn't cheaper. Pretty much all gas here is E10. Which is a 10% hit regards to fuel economy.
E10 is a 10% compared to running regular fuel.
There is regular gas sold in some places and that is not more expensive than the national average.
