One of many E85 locator websites I've seen:

This shows an E 85 station in Galt too. I think there's more out there than alot of people know of.....

Their everywhere Brian. Sac area has a lot. Then in the somewhat lower areas theres Elk Grove, Galt, Farmington, Modesto, and I talked to someone at Propel Fuels, and more E85 stations will be in the Modesto area within the next year.
The Modesto E-85 station isnt funded by Propel, or Pearson Fuels, thats why its not listed on their websites

E85 and or pure Ethenol has less energy in it per gal. as compared to gasoline meaning you will get less horse power and less fuel mileage from your E85 vehicle meaning any savings youn expect to recieve because of the price difference between the two fuels will be offset because your vehicle will need more E85 than gasoline to do the same work or travel the same mileage. I have a problem with that,your not saving squat and your vehicle has less power. You can have it, I wont run it in my truck. Current E85 price is $3.59.9 per gal as of 07/04/12, reg gas is $3.49.9 at ARCO. The E85 IS ACTUALLY COSTING YOU MORE.(with less horses) AND YOU CANT WAIT TO GET SOME! Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh!

Less HP? Wtf you must be trippin buddy. My current e85 price is 3.09 a gallon. I gained a lot more HP.
So maybe your truck doesnt do much on e85 but all of us subarus running it are very happy with the results
