If I could obtain CNG I would order a dual fuel conversion kit for my car today.
The dual fuel option is what is needed until a much larger infrastructure of CNG is in place at almost every gas station. However, with just one outlet here and it is 30 miles away, I cannot justify the conversion costs.
In Western NY, there is only one station which allows us peons to fill up. The others are all owned by us (State DOT) so of course we cannot use them.
Ever notice how many things which are public are not open to the public? NY commie bastards!
What about a home refuelng unit?
The original Phil brand units had some problems. But since then, BRC bought them out and now makes the compressing unit.
