We use ethanol in everything that burns gas. I"ve used it since it was available in MN. To use 85% your owners manual of the vehicle will tell you if your vehicle can use it. On older vehicles you might have to change gas filters being the ethanol cleans the tanks and if there was any rust or crud in the tank it will plug the filters. After a couple of filter changes there is no problem. Newer vehicles there"s no problem. With the ethanol your gas system won"t freeze up. No need for adding any deicers to the gas tank! They are working on soy diesel now for diesel engines. I think the blend now is 10% or 20% soy oil and the rest diesel. There are some diesels now they are burning 100% soy oil. The more of these fuels we use we are less dependent on foreign oil.
