“As to trunk space, my preference would be a CNG pickup, not a dinky car.”
I’m not interested in a dinky car, either. I need a car to transport wife and kids, and our stuff, in decent comfort for a long trip. I’m thinking of a CNG Crown Victoria , WITH A USABLE TRUNK!
For CNG to take off, we need coupes, trucks, sedans, wagons, hardtops, SUVs, vans .., ALL of it.
Don’t like the idea of gubmit subsidy, but to make such a significant change from gasoline to CNG, will need tax incentive help to establish infastructure for large trucks and autos/pickups.
If we could move transportation to CNG, it would shut the door to Arab oil imports.
I look for it to happen in the next four years.
