Should we convert all the cars and trucks to natural gas so we would clean air?
And besides we have lots of natural gas in the USA, so we wouldn’t be using Iranian oil too operate our vehicles, cleaning air and stopping terrorist, thats a win win for the USA.
The lobbyists in Washington are their to get their wishes passed and give all kinds of perks to the congress to make sure we keep using oil in great quantities.If natural gas was used they would find a way to screw us on that also.

Converting to natural gas instead of oil based gas for cars?
we no longer would be dependent on OPEC and we could tell them to kiss off next time they wanted to raise the cost of oil to 100 dollars a barrel. We could have the automobiles run on both natural gas or unleaded fuels and our country has more natural gas than the Arabs have oil
My vehicles run on natural gas right now. I have a 1999 Ford Crown Vic and a 1998 Ford F-150 pickup truck. Both were made originally to run on natural gas and have done quite well for years. The Vic has 147,000 miles on it and is doing great. Natural gas is easier on engines than gasoline and much cleaner for the environment, too. Also a lot cheaper, in Utah at least, – 88 cents a gallon as of March 1, 2009. It’s a great feeling to drive around in American cars and never use a drop of foreign oil. It can be done; we just need a better infrastructure for fueling the cars. Not a big deal. Actually, if you have natural gas coming into your home for heating/cooking, you can buy a filling device that refuels your car overnight at home so you’d never have to go to a filling station again. I saw an old government document online that said there are trillions of cubic yards of natural gas hydrates just off the west coast and in Alaska, so once that source is tapped, we truly could tell OPEC to "kiss off". There are a lot of possibilities!
Are natural-gas powered cars the way to go?
Do you think that cars powered by Compressed Natural Gas is a good way to shake off our dependence on foreign oil?

Dana:
There is a CNG station near me, that’s what got me to thinking about this. It’s run by our local natural gas utility.
I have 2 natural gas vehicles and love ‘em! It is very cheap here in Utah, 87 cents a gallon right now. I filled up the truck today for $8.17, and a contractor was at the next pump filling up his cng van and said he was saving about $650 a month in fuel costs. This is a big deal for us. I would love it if there were more of these vehicles being made and more pumps put in so there wouldn’t be a problem finding a place to fill up. The USA has a lot of natural gas of its own, and I believe it’s a great idea to use it instead of gasoline, not just because of the cheap price, but because it’s cleaner burning and easier on the cars’ engines. Check out my sources and see if one would work for you. They’re great cars to have!

Why won’t we use natural gas in cars?
We talk about gas prices lowering and rising again, why don’t we use nautral gas in cars? What’s the problem here? Do away with the dependency on foreign oil and use our own….!!!
we already do but but only a few western states have enough cng fueling stations to make it very practical.
there are a lot more lp gas cars than natural gas cars because theres at least one lp gas fueling station in every town that fills propane bottles for campers & home heating.

Pickens Wants to Use Natural Gas to Fuel Cars. Does Pickens Forget that Gas Comes from Drilling for Oil?
Experts have called Pickens plan to shift fuel from oil to natural gas similar to "jumping out of the frying pan into the fire."
Does that sound like a great idea?
Why isn’t Pickens just calling for us to use more nuclear plants. France gets 80% of their electricity from nuclear energy. Why don’t we? Aren’t our elected liberals as capable as France’s liberals?
Pickens is in it for money. Natural gas is not a good alternative to gasoline or it would already be being used more widely. You still have to drill and you have to refine and transport. It will power your car. It will also add weight and decrease the drive distance between refills.
Here in the fly over country a lot of good ol’ boys run propane or natural gas but the tank takes up a good portion of the bed.
He stands to gain no profit if we use nuclear energy which would allow us to convert to electric and electric hybrids.
