problem with corn fuel. you hafta distill it. takes heat. where do you get that heat? burn fuel. almost 1 gallon of fuel oil to distill one gallon of corn gas to mix with gasoline to save us from dependance on foreign oil.

OMG thats just retarded!!!

Is it true the oil comes out super clean if you use E85? I have a new work truck that flex fuel 8mpg for E85 10mpg for regular but its still getting broken in.

That's not exactly true, BUT very close. Either way it's a loss. It takes 3/4 gallon of fossil fuel for one gal of corn fuel. Irrigation pumps= fuel , tractors for the farm! combines etc? trucks to take corn to distillery , the distilling process! trucks to deliver the corn fuel etc? now here is the problem, if you get 15 miles per gallon on fossil fuel gas you will be lucky to get 10 mpg on corn. To me that would negate the entire notion that this is a renewable and energy efficient alternative to gasoline. Not even close. And I'm not going to tell you how much I hate cleaning out all the carb in my chainsaw, generator , dirt bikes kids dirt bikes and quads etc.

Exactly! If its not fuel injected you are going to have problems. We have to run the fuel completely out of anything with a carb. I will barely let a dirtbike, Harley, or Fourwheeler set overnight anymore without shutting off the gas and running the carb dry. Chainsaws, use it and then drain the tank. New generator with less than 2 hrs on it had to have a NEW carb and fuel lines. Couldn't be cleaned. My Skater has never had ethanol in its tanks but they will need reworked as soon as it goes in there. WTF?

Somebody needs an asswhoppin' if they think this is working out.

Saw them with Janes Addiction a year or two ago at the Filmore in Detroit. Friggin awesome concert and a great venue for it, Nice Shot was cool live . . .

Damn Dave, that's killer !

Are you gentlemen (lol) Korn fans by any chance ?

I absolutely love them !

I'm old, but my wife and i went to see them a few years ago and she suprised with with 'Pit' passes.

OMG !!!!!!!

Absolutely unbelievable live. Other than the lugies or clams (depends what you call them) they kept spitting at the crowd about evey minute or so. LOLOLOL.

This is one of my fav - sometimes I need songs to let my hostilities go.....not spur them on of course.

Same songs, though, when I'm in a good mood, really seam to help my focus and offroad driving style. Watch out ! LOL.
