E85 available at Marysville station

Regarding the June 2 letter, “I have the vehicle, where’s the E85?”:

I myself have been on the hunt for E85 since average gas price got close to $4. And I had luck!

There is a brand new Shell station that sells E85 and biodiesel off of Smokey Point Boulevard in Maryville. The address is 1401 172nd St. NE. I believe I paid $3.05 a gallon — almost a dollar cheaper than unleaded.

There is a company out of Longview called US Ethanol that plans to put E85 pumps up and down the I-5 corridor (www.usethanolnw.com). Hope this helps and good luck!
