I found two stations that sell no-ethanol gas.  I didn't check, but I think they're about 20-30 cents higher.

Leaving the ethanol out costs more than putting it in.

Yeppers!

I remember when leaded gas was still available that unleaded gas was more expensive even  though lead had to be added to the gas.

We used to have three grades of gas for awhile 10% ethanol and regular, which are the same octane and premium which was a slightly higher octane.  Now there is just the ethanol blend and regular.

Here in KC, the price for unleaded regular just dropped to $2.99/gal.  First time I've seen it below 3 bucks in ages, which is confusing, since spot market crude is up the last week or so.

It would be nice if it stayed that way down there, as we are thinking about meeting our kids in Houston for Christmas, and our 400 hp, 4x4 SUV isn't exactly friendly to a tank of gas......it does far better on the highway than I expected, but a Pirus it ain't.......

I just filled up today for $3.36/gal.  Amazingly enough it has been at that price for a week or so and there was no pre-holiday price jump.
