Was at a Racetrack fuel station in Florida and filling up with regular 87 as usual. The pumps have three handles, one for diesel, one for regular, mid and premium. The third handle is orange, 88 octane and is 15% ethanol. What I need help with is the economics behind this. The cost of the E15 is 12 cents more per gallon than regular. Someone help me understand / find any logic in the price difference between the regular 87 and the 88 E15?. I would expect the E15 to cost less, not more.
