Any advice would be welcome.
My family and I are on the edge of buying a nissan versa to save fuel on the old explorer that has seen too many days. We live up here in Washington State out on the Hood Cannal. We live on land that has natural gas service and are connected. My wife will be the primary driver and her work takes her on cross state buisness. With no CNG infrustructure up here we can only consider a bi-fuel application.
We would like to consider a small newer (1-5yrs old) suv, truck or even a passenger car that gets at least 20 to 30 mpg for conversion.
Heres the thing,
1) we are concerned about the conversion process, cost and most importantly support if things don't work reliably.
2)The actual cost of NG fuel up here verses places like utah and california where i've heard its cheap. Maybe it just doesn't make sence up here?
3)Is there such a thing as a bi-fuel production car like the dedicated honda?
4)Is there any way to buy a newer converted car that carries any warrenty or gaurrenty?
After license and tax and interest we are going to drop 20k on the Versa for upper 20's to upper 30's MPG with regular $4.50gas. She is looking to put between 15-20k miles annually on the vehical.
Any advice would be most welcome especially from someone in our area. Thanks!
