Wagner is on a distinguished road
The new Tahoe, for instance has a 5300 V8 that can use either regular gasoline or 85% Ethanol fuel. I then found that there is a filling station less then 20 miles from my house. If it is up to me, I would do my part..buy the Tahoe (American vehicle) and use the Ethanol fuel.

As you said, the Government will not make the push unless society does. Because, in the end it's your dollar. While a Tahoe wouldn't be my first choice for SUV/SAV, it hasn't certainly peaked my interest now. I believe as a society we need to show that we actually do give a damn, and voice this with our wallet.

Guess I'm just getting tired of us depending on areas of the world that burn down governments over cartoons.
