[QUOTE="SDAinstructor, post: 1967139, member: 17010"] I have several CNG vehicles and love them. My brother owns CNG Concepts in Norman. They do all of the City of Norman vehicles. Some words of advice though, if you have a Chevy or ford pickup, get the Quantum 21 gallon tank. Its the most bang for the buck. You have to remember that when you fill at a fast fill station (Loves, 7-11, ONG, City of Norman, On Cue's) you only get filled to 80% of the tank capacity. Slow fill stations will fill to 100%. This is all due to the gas heating and expanding as it is pushed into the tank. I can tell you right now that you will not gain any mpg's. On a EPA certified kit, you will have the same MPG's as on unleaded. All my vehicles are running IMPCO epa cert kits. Its the most popular one out. Also if the federal tax credit comes back it will only be for the EPA kits. Beware of buying used tanks. Those tanks have an expiration date and if you drive and get into some sort of accident that results in a death and they find out you had a expired or out of date tank, a lawyer will eat you up. If you can try and stay away from the ONG stations. They pass alot of oil through their compressors which goes right into your coalescent filter and into your injectors. The new 7-11 in moore on 19th and Eastern is a great station. $1.30 per gge. City of Norman has an awesomestaion to. $1.50 per gge. I have used the Loves down by riverwind several times but its usually extremely busy. It is nice that the stations seem to be popping up everywhere now. [/QUOTE]
