WHY DON'T WE HAVE AUTO GAS AT GAS STATIONS HERE LIKE THEY DO IN AUSTRALIA???

[Jack & Donna Smith]

Out here in the Kingdom of Arnold, we have quite a few Transit
Busses and FedEx vehicles running on "Clean Burning Natural Gas" as
the placard on the vehicle tells us.
I had always envisioned a SCUBA type compressor in the garage to
fill your cars tank over night.
I do recall that quite a few years ago, the English Morgan car could
not meet the emissions code, so some dealer outfitted a number of
them with a Propane conversion.
