Nissan today announced it would offer an E85 flex-fuel version of its Armada SUV in 2007. The truck will have a 5.6-liter V8 capable of running on 85% ethanol fuel, or regular gasoline. It will join Nissan’s existing E85 Titan, which was introduced in 2005.

I was going to **** on #1’s comment because I was confident that the comment wasn’t backed by fact. Turns out (per fueleconomy.gov) he is right. the sierra gets better mileage and lower emissions. still wouldn’t buy either though.

Here is why their are building an E85 vehicle. It isn’t because they are nice.
e85 is a waste of time. We could never produce enough fuel for everyone to use it and the engines are not efficient enough.

E85 is a red herring and the only reason car companies are immediately persuing it is because of the lack of having to sink money into new engine design. This is bascially non-news for the huge majority of people who don’t have a reliable supply of E85 fuel available. Forget E85 and bring on the diesels!!

Motorweek had articles about E85 back in 2003. Why is it being marketed JUST NOW as some miracle fuel alternative?

I agree with Joeb. E85 is a red herring. See:
