For that matter even the availability of 100LL fuel is far from guaranteed in some areas.

Something low compression with available STC for ethanol free mogas may be a reasonable option.

I hate drama queen news outlets. Yeah lead is bad but please let’s not get overly dramatic. None of the other neighbors seem to be having such effects. Hell, I pumped 100LL all day, every day for years….even used it to wash jet fuel off my hands. I’m not even sick. I’m all for cleaner fuels and all but articles lime this, from outlets like this. Just high school journalism.
