Honk if You Love Corn Ethanol

Ever wonder what the CEO of the National Corn Growers Association drives? It would have to be a flexible fuel vehicle touting the benefits of corn ethanol.  It’s true, NCGA has been proudly touting the facts of ethanol on its Web site for years.

In the past two years, we’ve gone mobile with our “ethanol ride,” thanks to the generosity of the Minnesota Corn Growers. In a twist of fate, that ride has a new look. “Bumped” into by another motorist, the ethanol wagon needed some costly repairs and a new paint job. On a whim, we entered the vehicle in a “Wrap My Ride” contest sponsored by New Vision Graphics and we won!

Now CEO Rick Tolman is riding in style, sporting a great look compliments of NVG and answering questions from parking lot attendants, passersby, and other motorists on the benefits of clean-burning, renewable ethanol.
