I've been running E-85 mixtures in a ton of vehicles over the years without issue. All modern cars are designed to handle a small amount of ethanol from the factory already.

Show me where it says in the owners manual to add oil to your gas and I'll believe you that the car was designed for it...

you can't. That's the same reason people tune their cars with higher levels of ethanol. Everyone has their own experience with different combos, but you come off in this thread acting as if ethanol is the end of the world. Ethanol is here to stay. But you are more than welcome to keep adding random oils and additives to your engine to combat it if you want.
You're a patronizing little guy, huh? I'm not "acting" anything.

I already showed you where in the manual it says using over 10% ethanol kills your warranty. I also showed you where gas additives don't void your warranty.
