I’ve done the math on this a lot of times. 93 Octane is $4.39. E85 is $2.69. That’s 39% more for premium. Fuel economy is typically 15-20% lower for E85. That’s a win all day.
Not so much for 87 Octane. $3.09 vs $2.69. Only a 13% difference but a 15 - 20% difference in fuel economy so that’s break-even at best, probably a loss.
One additional benefit… I NEVER have to clean my exhaust tips.
