Biggest issues with E-85 is one the amount of plant matter needed to make it for the whole country.
Another is how corrosive it is. Ethanol will erode alumium/alumium alloys and eat certain paper/rubber gaskets.
And there is a MPG drop usually 20-30 percent, and requires fine tuning of the vehicle to run it super efficiently.
Which is why ya buy a FFV Vehicle that is approved to run E-85
