I just bought a brand new f150 w/ 5.0 v8 that says it's a flex fuel. I have been googling e85 and supposedly it's safe in a d/d, not good for anything that sits for much time at all. My truck never sits more than maybe a day or so on the weekend (at the absolute most 1 day). I burn about 2 tanks of gas a week, and with gas prices the e85 is looking better each time I fill up!
My wife has been running e85 in her car for the last 2 years and her car has been problem free so far.... she drives the exact same miles as I do for work.
From google sources what I have found-

- is harder on seals if left sitting for long periods of time.
- e85 has a very short shelf life.
