Default E-85
On 6 May 2006 17:29:54 -0700, favored us with
this concise emission:

it must be _trucked_ to its destination

Isn't all gas trucked to its destination?

Trucks are used for the last leg of gasoline's journey, from large
local storage tanks to individual gas stations. When the truck's
tank is empty, it returns to the local storage tank to be refilled.
It does not drive hundreds or thousands of miles to a refinery.
From what I've heard, ethanol must be trucked long distances because
it would ruin transport pipes due to its more corrosive nature.


And if the trucks use the same fuel...

Then they very likely don't use battery powered electric motors.
