I sold my Civic to a buyer in Racince WI. Are there CNG stations between Washington DC and Chicago so I could drive all the way? The farthest I've driven on a tank was 186 miles which was 10 miles after the low fuel light came on so if I drove 55 mph for maximum mileage I should be able to top 200 miles a tank.

cngprices.com is the best resource for finding stations nationwide.
With a quick look at the map it looks like the next station is just a little too far to the west unless the station in Pittsburgh is repaired.

Also found http://www.afdc.energy.gov/afdc/locator/stations and http://find.mapmuse.com/directory/cng/pa but it looks like I'll be towing the car to the buyer.

Re: Can I drive DC to Wisconsin on CNG?
das is kinda a joke in the auto hauling world as it cant get any worse I have heard many bad things about them such cars taking a month or more to get where you sent them damage to your car and they try to tell you it was done when they picked it up telling customers that they would not pay the first 250 damage as it is a deductable well if I have a crash I have to pay my deductable they do the damage they should pay not the customer they are cheap and back to you get what you pay for I am glad you had good luck with them but I would not ship with them with the storys I have heard I cant remember having a customers car on my truck for more than 10 days and I felt bad about that most of the time the dealers that I hual for want a team on the truck that that there cars beat them home from the sale so they can get them on the lot for sale

Punctuation.
Doesn't matter - get top of the line and pay $800. Still cheaper/better than DIY. You're looking at renting a car hauler, 100+ gallons in gas for the tow vehicle, renting the tow vehicle if you don't have one, at least 2-3 nites in hotels, blah blah blah.

If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself. Cost me just about $250 for gas, tolls and a motel. Thats $550 I get to keep for 2 days of just sitting and driving.

You must have had your own/borrowed tow vehicle and dolly/hauler. Most people don't, and Uhaul would have taken your $250 just for a dolly, and twice that much for a transport trailer.
