Me too. I'm surrounded by tribal casinos in the PNW and a couple sell it at "decent" prices.

All stations around me only sell non-ethanol fuel.

I use it in my '86. The best I can find near me is 90 octane. Car runs fine on it, though.

I don't think you can buy it at all in this state.
I don't even think you can buy it at the marinas.

No corn gas for me. And I live in a city surrounded by corn fields.

Our local fuel distributor sells 91 eth-free here in Colorado It's what I keep in everything except when I'm on road trips.

I luckily found a station that sells 93 non ethanol at a very reasonable price. It's near my vacation home so I haul it back to my main residence periodically in 5 gallon cans. It's a hassle but to me it's worth avoiding the ethanol especially in my carb vehicles.

I typically use E0 93, the car gets about 0.5mpg better with it.
Right now though that is obscenely expensive.

That’s my first choice. I’ve been using 90 percent non ethanol and it works great.

I do this also.
Nearby here in WI, E0 premium is 91 octane while E10 premium is 93. I usually buy whatever I find during the driving season, but again I want E0 in it for winter storage.

I have been using 93 10 percent ethanol and haven't had an issue yet. Car seems to run nice with it. Before winter storage ill run the 90 ethanol free.
