Very clever how that Fox guy put words in the CEO's mouth. Maybe a little creative editing was applied as well. Somehow, I don't think the CEO of Briggs & Stratton wanted to go on the record as saying "don't buy our products because if you do and run the only fuel available to you they'll fail", but that's exactly how he came across.
Rather than take the Fox-filtered version, how about reading the actual OPEI press release at the link below? Although it's hardly flattering to ethanol, it's quite clear that the official OPEI position is that E10 is OK and E15 is not.
The reality is it nearly impossible for most folks to purchase ethanol-free gasoline. And anyone who takes a fuel supplier's word that their gas is ethanol-free without actually testing it is a fool. E10 is what we're going to get at the pump for the forseeable future.
I've watched over the past ten years or so how the prevailing attitude towards ethanol on this forum has pivoted 180 degrees, from pro to con. My position is unchanged: Large-scale production of corn-based ethanol for fuel can't be justifed based on economic or environmental reasons. It exists for political reasons alone.
