For car enthusiasts in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, Kroger’s E85 stations have been more than just a place to refuel — they’ve been a hub for our community. The Coit/121 Kroger station, once home to one of the most iconic E85 pumps in the region, is now gone with the construction of their new store. Even worse, there’s news that no new Kroger locations will include ethanol pumps.

This is more than disappointing — it’s a serious problem.

E85 isn’t just fuel; it’s cleaner-burning, high-quality ethanol that many of our vehicles depend on to run efficiently and perform at their best. By removing E85 pumps, Kroger isn’t just limiting fuel options — they’re signaling a potential end to accessible ethanol fuel in thriving locations. If we allow this trend to continue, we may soon find ourselves left with only subpar fuel choices, or worse, no pump ethanol at all.

This is where we need YOU.

The car community in DFW and beyond is massive, passionate, and thriving. We rely on stations like Kroger’s for not only fuel but for connection — meeting fellow enthusiasts, sharing stories, and celebrating our love of cars. If Kroger removes E85 pumps entirely, they’ll not only hurt drivers who rely on clean-burning fuel but also a vibrant community that’s grown around these locations.

Let’s send a strong message to Kroger Corporate: we are here, we care, and we need E85. Change only happens when we speak up, and now is the time to fight for the fuel that keeps our cars and our community running. Let’s protect accessibility to clean, quality ethanol fuel and show that we won’t stand for unnecessary restrictions on our passion and performance.
