831 - Natural gas-powered cars and trucks in Wyoming? By Bill Sniffin
With Wyoming being one of the largest natural gas producing states, would it not make sense for us to lead the USA in usage of vehicles powered by this abundant substance?
As gasoline moves toward $5 per gallon and a natural gas-powered car runs on $1.25 per gallon-equivalent cost, well, would it not make economic sense for us to push for this development?
What if the state gave some kind of economic benefit to companies that put in natural gas stations? Or to car dealers that sold natural gas powered cars? Or to car owners who buy these kinds of cars?
These cars are called CNG cars, for their use of compressed natural gas.
