  • Help-Medford, OR to Hillsboro, OR

    Hello all,

    I'd like to drive my Camry from Long Beach to Portland. The Camry has a range of about 260 miles. However, Medford and Hillsboro (Portland) are 278 miles apart. Anybody have any ideas short of adding a new tank? I've even contacted eco-fueler in Eugene to see if they could pump me a gge. We'll see what they say.

    Thanks all.

      Ok this is where I need help Im driving to Sacramento CA. from Medford, OR. and I can fill up in Medford but where is the nearest filling station South on the I-5 Freeway I figure i have a range of 240 highway miles (1996 dedicated CNG Crown Vic with 2 extended range tanks) is there a filling station in Redding Ca????? I know there is one in Chico, CA. but is that the nearest filling station? I think I need to hook up a trailer with a FM-4 with a extension cord that will plug in to someones dryer and a long propane gas line to tap into the gas cloths dryer and find some family member who will let me tap in. I wish the inferstructure was better for CNG...

      Thanks

        What Eugene CNG filling station? NOT!
        Check the forum's link: Fueling Station Map.
        Only one I am aware of there belongs to Governor Kulingoski & fleet, and it is not to be shared with us common people.
        That would enable travel from Medford to Portland and beyond to Seattle and B.C. - heaven forbid if that were to be possible!

            Oh, well. At least Govenor Kulingoski, and some other Oregon State workers can make it all the way up here, driving their State Owned CNG vehicles. I thought I saw a couple of Guys from Oregon, last year, skiing an snowboarding. They had each wrapped themselves in the Oregon State Flag, and were throwing money around, like they owned CNG Vehicles, or something.

            Hopefully, the CNG fueling infrastructure will grow to soon allow CNG travel to B.C. (Vancouver/Whistler) all the way from Southern California. The Clean Energy CNG Stations in Everett and Bellevue Washington really do give good fills, so I go down South of Seattle from Vancouver B.C, all the time. Cheap !

            Keep hopin & wishin
