Obviously it burns cleaner, would be cheaper, would decrease maintenance costs due to less lubticating oil (synthetic) contamination, would eventually eliminate fuel storage and many other good reasons. Or MAYBE we have to march on Washington. Hell! Everybody else is doing it. If we could get enough natural gas fueled vehicles, cars, busses, trucks and maybe even some airplanes??, to participate I'm sure we could make some impact. Something BIG has to happen to get some attention paid to it. Personally? I hope gasoline goes up to $20 a gallon. THEN we'd get some attention!

We don't want just "American" generated oil & gas... We want our energy to come from these sources, with emphasis on renewable energies clean natural gas NOT generated from fossil fuels.which will benefit our economy & our appetite for energy.

Let's start with the Big truck lines, retro- fitting the big 16 wheelers. Then the Airlines, then all trucks, & rvs. then our cars. IT MAY BE COSTLY, BUT SO IS $4.00 A GAL OF GASOLINE.
