Soybeans for tires.

Biodisel and ethanol also terrible uses of crops. Better used to feed things, not diminish use of the energy in fossil fuels. Alcohol helps to race, not get a vehicle down the road economically plus the added energy to make a lower MPG fuel is just insanity.
 
You are absolutely correct on soy insulation. Farm equipment raises the product that mice eat, damaging the farm equipment!

I might be biased as I raise corn, but I feel grain alcohol is better than MTBE as a octane and oxygenator booster.
 
E85is 70% efficient to straight gasoline and is never ever 70% cost so the loss is crazy as you pay more for less plus the energy use to refine it. Ethanol needs to just go away.

But you do get controled burn/high octane.
