I have run both E-30 and E 10 in two of my vehicles. The running around, short trips on E-30 is 1 mile per gal. less than E-10. On a long trip burning a full tank, I get 2 mpg better with E-30. E-30 tonight was $3.17. E-10 was $3.39 and straight regular was $3.49. With a 1 mpg drop in mileage, it comes out just aboout even between E-30 and E-10. Between E-30 and straight regular I would be ahead with the E-30. Both vehicles run good on either mix. I have used E-85 in my BO Lindeman. It started harder but once it got going it ran fine without any adjustments. I ran some in my 40 JD and it started and ran just fine.
