Hi, I am a new member who has had some experience driving CNG vehicles
cross country. A few years ago I would fly to Ford factory auction sites
and pick up Ford CNG cars to bring back to Tulsa.
I found that I could go on line to locate CNG stations on the route from
such places as Houston, St Louis, San Antionio, and other cities.
I also found out the hard way that I had better call each of those stations
to make sure that they were still open, and that I could use them.
I also found that I needed to carry an adapter nozzel because not all of
the station nozzels were the same.
I think that these kind of problems were one reason that Ford stopped
manufacturing CNG cars. To me, CNG cars will not become a reality until
the oil companies solve the problem of lack of CNG stations.
I am not normally a fan of T. Boone Pickens, but I applaud his push to
make widespread use of CNG cars and trucks a reality.
