One of the guys here on this forum run LPG in his HEMI overseas. His truck is big and black and badass. I just remember his picture though, not his name. Sorry... I'm sure he'll see this thread and post sooner or later.

Here in the netherlands lpg(mix of propane and butane) is a lot cheaper then regular gas.
Regular cost here $6.57 gallon and LPG is $2,27 gallon.

I have a LPG conversion made by Prins called VSI.(http://www.prins-lpg.com)
I have it now 2,5 years.
The car use 20% more lpg then regular gas.
And there is no diverence in driving on lpg ore regular gas.

my gas is barely cheqaper than your LP....

I bet the US govt knows about LP, they're not stupid, if they deem that its not goin to be too profitable then they wont use it....more than likely tho some of the oil companies got a few oliticians in their pockets and theyd rather push gas because it costs more...

What kind of MPG or KPL are you getting using LPG?

LPG 10 mpg,regular 12 mpg
I'm not a slow driver mostly 80-85 on CC.

LPG is a wasted product when you refine oil.
Mostley the oil companies burn it.

didnt know that, maybe its somethin we need to look in to. Well if you say that your MPG is not as good as with reg gas, then maybe thats why they dont use it here....but still if your lookin for good MPG then get a camry.....

I think switching to propane (besides costs) shows benefits out the tail pipe vs gasoline rather than MPG. I know in Yosemite National Parks, they forced the bus and Federal vehicles there to run on LPG only.
