Gas for $1.30 a gallon

Post by garylspolar »

39 miles to the gallon on natural gas. Natural gas comes from your home, through a Phill pump that is installed in your garage. Cost for fuel? About $1.30 a gallon.

I think Biodiesel is a good option, and if I still had my Golf TDI, I'd be making my own.

That is a car I thought looked cool. It is really only being sold in Cali and NY for fleet usage (parking police, mail carriers).

It is expensive for a civic, and then you have to install a home filling station, the whole deal would be over 30K. There is some tax rebate on the filling station. I did some estimating, that I have long forgotten...but it was something like, " the car would be in the junk yard before I saw a monetary benefit."
I was dreaming when I wrote this, forgive me if it goes astray...
