What engine with a warranty is not made to use it?
It is approved for vehicles back to 2001. So, I would say that statement takes away any liability by manufacture.
For instance. It says to 2001. My 99 Dodge V10 is the same engine and fuel delivery as the 2001...so there is no reason it would not work with it either.
I think it was 2011 when it was introduced.
As mentioned this is just a spotlight move for a failing ability of the rulers. It goes against all they say they are for in an attempt to show they are in touch with the cost of living.
Annoying at best. But your engine will be fine using it.
Just like the Hemi isnt going away...neither is E10 or E0 fuel. It just costs more...the only reason this even made a headline
FYI I forgot I was in the Ram forum as I recall from 2011 when Toyota said no to E15 per Toyota email:
Thank you for contacting us.
We appreciate your interest in properly operating your Tacoma.
