If you want to see info on the Prius go to john1701a.com
 
An excellent source on VW TDI's go to tdiclub.com
 
A good sorce of info on e85 is e85fuel.com
 
A google seach will give a wealth of info on this topic. One need to keep in mind, dispite the enthusiest and the naysayers, all these vehicle segments have good and bad points. Those sites I mention are very helpful and friendly. Some sites even have a network of likeminded owners for one to network with in regards to the vehicle.
 
I hope this helps...

Does your company guarantee that the Ethanol will not damage aluminum engine parts? My understanding is that is why Toyota and Honda are dragging their feet on E85 capable cars.

When it comes to corrosion E85 can cause damage, since prolonged exposure to high concentrations of ethanol may corrode metal and rubber parts in older engines (pre-1988) designed primarily for gasoline. The hydroxyl on the ethanol molecule is an extremely weak acid, but it can enhance corrosion for some natural materials. For post-1988 fuel-injected engines, all the components are already designed to accommodate E10 (10% ethanol) or higher blends through the elimination of exposed magnesium and aluminum metals and natural rubber and cork gasket parts.Hence, there is a greater degree of flexibility in just how much more ethanol may be added without causing ethanol-induced damage.
Now we also have a company that provides extended warranties for all flex fuel vehicles and converted vehicles as well. Call us at 866 568-3617
