Anybody?

 

Bump lookin for real world experience here.

 

I contacted Phoenix systems out of Bham a while back. They said efficiency is about the same but cost of the fuel is 1/3 or more less... Not sure if that's with every kit or just theirs.

 

I had the opportunity to operate cvpi's which were dual fuel. I never much liked the the performance of the cng. On the other if ya can tolerate that, it is much cheaper to operate... Jmo... I will say this, our maintenance half-jacked everything, so there were prob other issues there.... Also the systems we had took up quite a bit of space in the trunks...

 

I've operated an old 75ish Chevy truck that was CNG and there's a difference in power but the fact that CNG is 1.35 per gge or gasoline gallon equivalent I'm not to worried about the performance loss.

 

One of my buddies has a Suzuki samurai thats CNG powered, pretty easy to add on since he has carburetors. Probably has a 3 gallon tank and fills it about every 2 weeks.

 

i know roush makes a LP(liquid propane) conversion kit with a 500 mile range tank that mounts in your pickup bed.

 

I looked into it but I couldn't find anything unless it's a 2009 or newer. If you have a link I'd appreciate it.
