Flex Fuel Vehicles: Student interested in Interview

Nov 13, 2006 1 Replies

I am an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan writing a short article about Ethanol as an alternative fuel source for American cars. As many of you know, Flex Fuel Vehicles (FFVs) can run on Ethanol (typically in its E85 form) and have been selling well recently. What I need is an FFV owner who could give me their perspective on what motivated their FFV purchase. The interview would be on the phone and no more than ten minutes long. If you are interested, or know someone who is, please email me at snipped-for-privacy@umich.edu, and we can set up a time to talk. Thank you for your time.



I suggest you read Consumers Reports of few months back on this subject.

They suggest E85 fuel will result in more excessively large vehicles being manufactured (because of the E85 EPA credit) increasing fuel consumption and pollution, as few owners will be using E85 fuel.
