Methane (CNG) cars have been here for decades. They are affordable, durable (cleanest motor oil you’ll ever see) and with the proper equipment fuelled overnight from your house’s natural gas feed.

I drove a CNG Toyota Camry for 6 years in my work assignment and you couldn’t tell a difference in performance. It is the most sensible way to leverage the US dominance in natural gas production, so of course the infrastructure and government incentives will be steered away into hydrogen boondoggles.
