I noticed the performance level as well from the switch. The hills I used to be able to cruise up with no trouble, now not so much.

Thanks .gov for the earth saving move. Not!

You think Big Oil has a lobby? Try Big Corn. Thanks to them, their **** is not only in our soft drinks, it's in our gas tanks, too. In my opinion, ethanol is a contaminant of gasoline.
