E10 gasohol is a pox upon the land.

Is there any real gas available at MI stations? Or is E10 it?
How about Ohio and Indiana?

OK, Jake, just checking. We are considering a move.

Here in the northwet, E10 is almost universal.
Hard to find non E10.

Not sure. Perhaps Hillsdale area, maybe the thumb, maybe up Oscoda way, the UP is possible. Maybe the west coast. Have I covered everything?
Need to cruise and check it out.
Houses and land are low right now. Used to live in motown area years ago. Still have a couple of friends around.
Any recommendations welcome.

Of course I am biased, but I like the West side and the UP.

Are you looking for a job right now or are you retired? My favorite spot in Michigan is along the west coast. If your looking for a job then the west is doing a little bit better than the east depending on the field.

I think people might have E10 confused with E85 maybe? The only gas station I know of that does NOT have ethanol in it is Miejer. Best of my knowledge most fuel sold in Michigan has 10% ethanol because of the lower pollution standards. I see on the pumps at every gas station I fuel up at " this fuel contains 10% ethanol".

I'll have to look closer because I really have no idea what the norm is for my area. Have to fill up this afternoon, so I will check Wesco then.

I was afraid of that. I'm afraid the E10 plague has covered the land like a plague of locusts.

As long as you CAN get non-E10, that was my question.

With rare exceptions, that's what we get here too. I've found one rural station that has real gas (that or they're posting microscopic 10% signs), one regular-only that also sells 100% gas at a very jacked up price, and the air base gas is not E10.

Otherwise it's E10 or E10.
