3. Increased economic activity from local agriculture and biofuel production.
4. Reduced dependence on foreign oil sources.
5. It can be used in many existing vehicles without any modifications.
6. Supports U.S. economy: Because ethanol is produced in the United States, using E85 helps to support the domestic economy.
