As one of the largest corn-producing states in the Union, the state government of Nebraska feels compelled to run its vehicles on ethanol blends. However, when the price of the fuels skyrocketed recently, a memo went out to the state's vehicle-using employees to run whatever was cheapest cost-per-mile-wise, E85 or E10. Meanwhile, the state's cops, who are exempt from the ethanol edicts, saved $22,000 by running straight gasoline. We're still not convinced, Nebraska.
