I am starting to think all these different blends should have different shape fuel nozzles, so E15 doesn't go into a year 2000 car.  The majority of people will NOT know the difference or read the label closely (I don't blame them). 

Fuel suppliers should be forced to use the old square peg in round hole trick.  I know diesel pumps are physically larger diameter, so it can't go into a gas tank, but that doesn't really work vice versa though.

The diesel pumps around here use different size nozzles depending on pump flow rate.

You can put diesel in a car, or gas in a diesel.

I think if people don't know what their vehicle runs on then they should have the trouble and expense related.
