Good morning devane617. I hope you are well. Here in Oklahoma we are blessed with the availability of pure, 100 % real non-blended gasoline. Yes, it costs about 10% more, but gas mileage with it offsets that corn gas price. It always struggle to find pure gasoline when I travel to other states. Most states don’t have that option.
Please allow me a bit of market survey. Is pure gasoline available in your area? If it were at 10% higher price, but you got 12% higher gas mileage, would you be willing to pay for it? The mileage and reduced date to the engine are bonuses.

Florida has corn-free gasoline. Wawa is a reliable retailer carrying it.
Most QuikTrip stores have the red handle pumps which is ethanol free. All I use.
The E15 stuff has been at many locations in the Dallas area for almost three years now. As I recall, the pumps have signs that specify a certain year model of vehicle or newer. It's a few pennies cheaper, but just like E85, I'd use it only as a last option.
As a write this, there is fresh snow on the ground. Near whiteout along some of the local freeways from blowing snow. Temperatures will be back in the teens this week. Ethanol attracts water into gas. Higher ethanol percentage attracts more. An iced fuel line doesn't work well. An iced fuel pump may be destroyed.
Yes, NON-Ethnoil is available at a Shell station close to my home. It is expensive but that is what I use in one of my cars that requires premium gas anyway.
