CNG upfits for vans and pick-ups run in the $15k+ range. Working on a 5 van deal as we speak-but expensive to the end user as far as initial outlay goes.

That is probably the biggest problem with CNG. Do you have natural gas in your home?

For what it's worth, I believe natural gas prices will remain at these low levels for a very long time. The paradigm in the natural gas business has changed.
