That site (CNGOutfitters.com) looks legit to me and covers just about everything you can think of. Wish I was close enough for the install, would almost pay for itself in a few months with the price of gas.

I also found this site, everyone knows you can run on propane, if you look towards the bottom of the page they now have conversion kits for Carb engines. Here is the link http://www.gotpropane.com/p1.html. You have to click on Avaliable Kits first though.

Has anybody converted their trucks or SUV's yet to CNG? I Guess no, not worth it, though CLEANER than gas expensive to install...

Our transit authority here once had 125 CNG buses, but they got rid of all of them by the end of 2006 - 50 of them converted to diesel. That tells me something, and it's not good...

Here, in MA on all the public transport buses, it has sticker saying CNG. It tells me that these buses are operated by a dedicated CNG mechanism instead of Gasoline....

CNG a Good Thing

I have only see great reviews. Some natural gas companies supply a free tank in my area. Only pay for the fuel. Also. CNG burns much cleaner. The tests are showing longer engine life with regular services at proper intervals. They are talking about increasing an engine's life up to 300,000 to 500,000 miles! Talk about a pay off. Not to mention it is the most plentiful natural recourse in the U.S. I will convert as soon as I find the right kit for my Sequoia and I can cover the initial start up cost.
