I thought this was going to ake a long time to get here, but the papers show it opening up today in Hallandale Beach. So if your car is capable of getting this type of gas, by all means do you have any idea how much money you can save?

Here is a small clip from the Sun-Sentinel newspaper.

South Floridians with flex-fuel vehicles now have more options in Broward County when fueling up.

On Wednesday, the U-Gas at 990 W. Hallandale Beach Blvd., became the first gas station in Broward to offer E85 fuel, a blend of 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline.

Flex-fuel vehicles can run on either ethanol or gasoline and auto makers like General Motors, Chrysler, Nissan and Ford are leading the charge in their production.

To launch E85 in Broward, the gas station offered an early bird deal of $1.85 a gallon for the E85 blend for two hours during this morning's rush hour. The original price was $3.75 a gallon.

I know my van is capable, but need to take it to the dealer to get the kit installed. So that is going to be on the to do list!!

What do you think?

I drove a rental car a couple years ago that could take that E85, I didn't think it had as much power as it did when I drove on regular unleaded gasoline.
