Anyone here use CNG?

I recently read an article about a fella who added a CNG system to his '08 Dodge 1 ton dually with 4-Wheel Drive (not certain about the 4WD) with a 6.7 or 6.8 liter Cummins Diesel…the truck now uses both the CNG and diesel. Before the addition of the CNG, he says he was getting 13.5 mpg on the highway and now he claims to be getting 24 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway!

I'm wondering if this can be done with a gasoline engine and if so, what kind of mileage could someone get on a smaller and lighter vehicle, such as an '06 4-Runner or an '08 F-150 with 2WD and a V-6 engine?

Just curious if any of you guys have done this yourselves or if you know someone who has. Thanks.

Larry
