You are correct. MPGs go down with E85 about 27% on most engines, so you need an E85 price 27% lower than regular to break even. This site tested some E85 flex fuel cars and posted the results on E85 vs. gasoline.

Don't forget to add in the extra cost of our food caused by increased ethanol production. It would have to be near FREE to make up all the costs that it is costing us.
