    Hi everyone. There is a gas station near my house that has E88 gasoline. Its about 5 cents cheaper than regular 87 octane. Is this safe to use in the new tundra? The owners manual says up to 15% ethanol, which this E88 is. More curious if this is safe.

    Only E0 to E15 is safe to use.

    Edit: 88 octane fuel (not E88) is E15 apparently so it’s safe to run. This is the first time hearing about this.

    You're talking about (I assume) E15, which is 88 octane typically. As long as the manual says it's safe go for it.

    I run that pretty much all the time in my Durango. You'll lose a little on the mileage front but nothing awful.

    I put a half tank of it on top of 87 octane. Runs just fine, going to go for a full tank tomorrow.
