Being green, had nothing to do with E85. On most cars, automakers receive tax breaks on the E85 vehicles they produce. Those tax breaks, are worth more money than what it costs to include the ability. Thus increasing their margins by making cars "Flex" capable.

I don't think the badge is meant to be for narcissistic hippies. I think it's more of an e85 branding thing and a promotional technique to spread awareness that e85 exists. e85 producers are trying to break into the massive oil market, and if more people are more aware of which cars are an alternative to regular gas or hybrid cars, then it gives them a better chance of spreading and opening more pumps.

It took 7 years to recognize that the van takes e85? That's not ahead of the game, that's a fail on Dodge's part. That's why e85 didn't take off 7 years ago. That's also like saying the mid 90's malibu is ahead of the game for not attracting attention.

I didn't cut anything, it's just how it came from Greddy.

Where does it taper? Last time I was under the car (few weeks ago) I don't remember seeing a taper anywhere.
