How is ethanol a waste? I swear you southern Bubbas are the ultimate mouth breathers.

but I have to use their special DEF or else the sensor detects the difference


Automotive DEF is 32.5% urea and 67.5% deionized water. Most DEF systems have a tolerance range of a couple percent up or down before throwing a code. If Land Rover has a proprietary DEF or tolerance they should be open for a massive lawsuit. Any good quality DEF should be effective. Same as any brand diesel fuel long as it’s stored properly.

Maybe a little bit of an unpopular opinion on ethanol. But I would hold off on cutting the subsidies until they have gone after the more egregious examples of waste and fraud elsewhere

Farmers are a big part of Trump's patronage network in states like Iowa, Nebraska, OH, Indiana, Southern Illinois, etc and the golden rule of politics is to "punish your enemies and reward your friends". So if we are going to go to take after Corn, let's make sure we have setup alternate ways to keep them producing and hopefully doing with more useful and productive crops.

The biggest scam in the USDA is Welfare/Food Stamps... while ethanol and a whole host of farm subsidies are scams, they are miniscule when compared to the food stamp scam...

It is my understanding that most farm programs for 2025 are on a permanent hold at this point...
