Question type: General

Are they more complicated causing increased maintenance costs or less fuel efficient than a straight gasoline engine.

No problem with the purchase of the vehicle. Just remember your MPG's using E85 will be about 25 percent less than E10. So unless the E85 is 25 percent lower in price than E10, use E10
