after finally finding the drivability issue cutting out after driving for about 45 minutes and having about every tune up item possible replaced. I found that the 06 Dodge Hemi gets 19.5 mpg going to south Florida on straight 87 octane gasoline for 1200 miles and 18.6 mpg with E15 gas. 10-15% alcohol mix for 1200 miles return trip to West Oklahoma. I filled up the final tank at pump number 220 out of 247 pumps at Buc-ees next to Texas Motor Speedway.

At 117 years old I don't put much stock in your figures.

It only makes sense that the alcohol gas would make less mileage.
Not sure why anything on the web needs accurate vital information ? Not a smart idea to put out there.
