Personally, I'm not a big fan of E85. It may be cheaper but it's not as efficient as gasoline. I think biodiesel will be the way to go as far as biofuels go. Biodiesel is actually old technology that has a proven track record.
I haven't done a study of the alternatives. My impressions is that the energy required to make E85 exceeds what is gained, although it is cleaner burning. E85 is my least favorite alternative. I would like to get away from the combustion concept of energy but that won't happen in my lifetime.
Kick the Oil Habit has an excellent video on their website. Go. Watch. Learn.
