i dont think that motor will be e 85 will be pump gas my guess e 85 is nice but you have to carry so much more fuel and hard to find on the water just my 3 cents worth

agree ^^^^
My Tahoe is flex and I tried running e85 for 4 tanks just to test- Lost almost 4MPG each tank. Granted cheaper fuel BUT?? When you only get 13-14 to begin with in a truck- imagine that Xs what you burn in a BBC or 2 lol Need twice as much. |
I don't know what Miami will bring, but I just went past Cobo and saw the shape of things headed into the Detroit Boat Show....
For the life of me I can't figure out why all these boats have radar arches but no radar... http://i1342.photobucket.com/albums/...psu31bhjvc.jpg |
To mount the speakers for the wakeboarder to hear music who's not behind the boat and to hold the wakeboards they're not using

You're joking right? :lolhit:
Brarch, n- an arch on a ski boat to let one "brah" easily identify other "brahs" without having to actively locate flat bill caps and white frame sunglasses from distance. Most boats with brarches are pulled by trucks with energy drink stickers and only the front end jacked up. "Man, look at all the brarches at the sandbar, are they filming a Monster commercial or taking a break from X-games practice?" |
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ :lolhit:

Now it all makes sense. I thought they were roll-bars like on the jet sprints.

E85 makes so much power tho. Probably not worth it in the Tahoe. Rule of thumb I was always told was burn 20% more but the fuel is 33% cheaper. Still would save 13%. Although I don't have 1st hand experience.
I run E85 in my street cars for years (out of the pumps) and for the first time last season in the boat (Ignite). If the application is setup for it I think it's great stuff. Just putting E85 in your flexfuel vehicle is not the best comparison. A fair comparison would be E85 vs race fuel. From my history of it....burns is about 20-30% more (depending how its used). Makes similar HP to C16 at a fraction of the price. More TQ and runs quite a bit cooler |
