Louisville Thornton’s joins America’s First Biofuels Corridor On Wednesday, October 8, flexible fuel vehicle (FFV) drivers took advantage of the E85 promotion which took place at the Fern Valley Road Thornton’s Quick Cafe & Market in Louisville. The event was part of a nation-wide AFV Day Odyssey celebration. A live remote radio broadcast was held from 9 to 11 a.m. and 50 $10 E85 gas cards were distributed to patrons. Local television crews were also on hand to hear the benefits of the alternative fuel and took notice that E85 was selling for 60 cents less than regular unleaded gasoline. This Thornton’s refueling site is one of 25 along a four-state corridor along I-65. A caravan of FFV’s drove from Southern Alabama to Northern Indiana to celebrate the completion of America’s First Biofuels Corridor.
