Misleading Advertising with Ethanol in Gasoline
Recently in the East TN area a Pilot Oil Company began selling E-85 ethanol at some o their stations. In addition to this, however, they began adding 10% ethanol to their regular gasoline. They didn’t lower the price, though. Yesterday another local station I stopped at, Weigel’s was doing the same thing. Nowhere on their sign does it mention this fact. There is just a small sticker above the pump. If you are going to only give me 90% gas, at least give me a decent price break. For now I will stick to Amoco/BP and 100% gasoline. Just beware if you pull up to a pump, you might not be getting entirely what you think you are paying for.
