Thread bump for August. Holy crap, where have I been? The answer is busy. Company buyouts and weeks long trips to Africa and Europe have an effect. Plus there hadn't been much in the way of stations opening, so...
Enough excuses.
Here are the new stations open since I last posted.
Banning - Chevron Station at Sunset Ave and W Ramsey St
Fresno - Arco Station at S. Cherry Ave and E Jensen Ave
Huntington Beach - Chevron Station at Beach Blvd and Slater Ave
La Quinta - Chevron Station at Dune Palms Rd and Highway 111
Riverside - 76 Station at Riverside Ave and Central Ave
San Juan Capistrano - Chevron Station on Gateway Place off of Antonio Parkway
Temecula - Chevron Station on Jefferson Ave near Winchester Rd
Of these stations, La Quinta is the most significant because it now means that the Palm Desert/Indio has its own E85 station.
Still crossing my fingers that Lancaster and Victorville regions open soon.
If you happened to catch RRE's instagram post from last month of the Isuzu truck in Zambia with Road Race Engineering swag on it, yea I provided the swag.

Pearson does not list this station on their guide. Can you verify that this address is correct?
I do periodically compare the DoE site that Zergburger mentions with my map to keep mine current, but again I haven't done that in a few months. I did just check it now though and the DoE page also doesn't list a station at 30801 Gateway Place in SJC and neither to any of the usual suspect websites I check.

Ok quick update. I did a google Street View and sure enough, there appears to be E85 pumps dating back to February of 2018. Hmmm I'm going to have to figure out who their supplier is. This is intriguing.

So I managed to track down a phone # and called the station which still doesn't appear properly in Google Maps. Sure enough, they carry E85 there but were unable to tell me who their supplier was. Time for some legwork.

Most spots in northern california seem to be Propel fuels.
Is this also the case down south?
No, most of it comes from Pearson down here in SoCal. https://pearsonfuels.com/
Confirmed! Been there.
I can confirm Pearson e85 pumps at Mobil 1 corner of sixth st/ paseo grande in Corona
76 station corner of Ontario & Compton Ave in Corona. Two ethanol pumps confirmed.
Does anyone exist on these boards anymore?
There are still some that pops in and out.
I'm here most of the week days, don't forget to tip your waitresses!
