"The EPA is now preparing to approve E15 fuel, containing 15% ethanol, for vehicles with a model year 2007 and newer."
Doesn't look like owners of pre-2007 vehicles will be forced to use higher ethanol blends anytime soon, but I'm curious why the EPA made this decision. Is it because they haven't tested E15 in pre-2007 vehicles, or is there something about 2007 and newer cars that make them better able to handle higher blends?
