Damn shame IMHO. Yes I'd rather see it go to Diesel Trucks via a conversion process/fleet update, but the potential of refilling at home with an existing infrastructure is just to enticing. I would think a better fueling station could be designed but their is always a bigger idiot.

Not to mix the fuels, but a Volt or Ford with their new "Energi" plug in hybrid on Gaseous fuels would IMHO jump start us to tell the Saudis to pound sand. If we have as much Shale gas as I hear, I can't forsee a price spike. If you think I am crazy, so be it. I fear you could read this post a week from now if Egypt and the rest of the Middle East melt and we are looking for an alternative and it would be so crazy after all.

Again, same problem. You’re having cars compete with powerplants for fuel sources and you lose either way when you do that.

Natural gas isn’t a solution. But hydrogen could be.
