Not in large enough quantities. Of the places I go both of the stations in my area are out of the way, and would be annoying to go to.
I have dreamed of building a E85 engine, but not for a DD where I live. Plus if I went to visit family I would have to bring enough fuel to finish the return trip.
If worse comes to worse. I rather build a throw away 350. It would be emotionally easier to deal with. As at 430 am I need gas I can stop anywhere vs a special trip in the wrong direction to work.
I have access to a 283 that needs a regasket, and manifold. That I could make work if need be.
