This would cause the cost to skyrocket. The percentage of E-85 vehicles on the roads is so small that it might not be too beneficial right now.
Sorry about being the Devil's advocate but I just wanted to point a few things out.

Pumps for unleaded gas? Who is going to pay for it? Most gas stations only have regular and hi-test pumps. And with gas only costing 25 cents a gallon, they can't afford new pumps.
Besides, there aren't any cars out there that will run on unleaded. You need the lead for lubrication. Put unleaded in existing cars and you will ruin all the seals and gaskets!
