Gas stations in San Luis Obispo, CA currently offer unleaded gas as the only form of fuel for our vehicles (non electric). It's time that we demand alternatives for our fuel. Specifically, Ethanol (also known as E85). E85 burns cleaner than gas, it's cheaper and it even increases your vehicles performance! Currently, there are 106 gas stations across 71 cities in California that offer E85 as a fuel alternative. These numbers continue to grow. Economically, the average price of unleaded gas in California is $3.55 per gallon in comparison to E85 at $2.85. Some of you may already own a vehicle that runs on E85 (Flex Fuel) but since there are no gas stations that offer E85 in San Luis Obispo (76 station in Atascadero is the closest), you are left with no other option but to use dirty, expensive unleaded gas....or drive over the grade to fuel up. What if your car only uses gas? Not to worry, there are conversion kits available online (see below) that will allow your car to run on E85 and/or unleaded gas. Considering the minimal cost to install a conversion kit in comparison to the savings on fuel costs and the environment, it makes sense. So, I am reaching out to my fellow San Luis Obispo residents to join me in the consumer movement to demand E85 as an alternative fuel source in our city. A locally owned and operated gas station has already expressed interest in the idea and is considering offering E85 at their pumps! With your support, we can help convince them to make this a reality! Thank you for your time and interest.
