We're filling @ .99 GGE right now at a commercial station. The a local government transportation station is at $.67 / GGE. I have been around CNG for 25 years .... YES 25 YEARS ....

The car is a near zero emissions. YES, CO2, and Water. BTW, the dedicated engine is 3 - 4% more efficient than the same gas job. Promote CNG / LNG fueling stations, support dedicated NG vehicles ... BAM , you've improved everything 3%

It drives me NUTS that NG is seen as a fossil fuel and therefore not a good option for transportation. NO, instead we close down coal plants, burn our NG instead to generate electricity to plug into our (future) cars which will operate on unproven, uneconomical battery technology.

AND ANOTHER THING ... where does that waste heat go from my IC engine in my car 1/2 the year in Wisconsin ??? HHmmmmm? Gee, I do like to stay WARM when I'm driving and it's -5 degrees!! Huge efficiency gain in the winter on those IC engine cars when you include the heat provided for cabin comfort!! I wonder how many extra battery trailers it will take to run one of these voltfollies when its sub-zero and howling....

Now, just don't get me started ......
