I've been following this blog about a guy making a cross country trip in a CNG powered truck.

http://old-moho.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html

I looked at the CNG conversion web site.

THe whole thing seems to have potential except that the tanks are too small for a decent range and they are stupidly expensive.

We apprently have three Saudi Arabia's worth of NG under the US. It's impractical to export offshore so it's not as vulnerable to the global market and right now it's under $2/gal.

But I figure there would be more mainstream buzz unless there is a fatal flaw and if so, i figure someone here knows what it is.....
