That's incorrect.

As I posted before, yes, you can run E-85. It'll run poorly but if the
day comes as Jeff Strickland postulated,

then E-85 will keep your jeep running. Don't use it unless you have
to, your mileage will suffer and the car won't run as well but it WILL
run.

The official FAQs:

I recall all the flap when leaded fuel went away and "horrible things
would happen to older cars." Surprise, they ran fine on no lead fuel.

I really doubt it's something to worry about, I doubt that E-85 will be
around long, I doubt even more it will be federally mandated and IF it
is, it probably won't be soon.

This is like this "world concert" so save the Earth televised yesterday. A
bunch of uneducated celebs fly to various continents to play music, and that
is to stop global warming? I suppose they bought "carbon credits" to make it
OK?
What is really happening is that everyone wants others to change their
lifstyle to reduce their impact, but few will actually do it themselves. I
should send Madonna an oxygen bill for what is produced by the many large
conifers on my place.
