If you buy a used vehicle (not deisel engined) you can save the high cost of getting a hybrid. Propane systems have improved dramatically now that gasoline engines are fuel injected and use computers. I saw a Crown Victory get dual fuel system today, and you know how much lower propane costs. The system is automatic and starts on gasoline and then switches to propane almost immediately. So by buying used and adding the propane you can enjoy the savings on fuel costs immediately. And propane is not imported, it's manufactured right here in North America. Hmmm this sounds like a commercial. It's not. I just was in a shop today and saw them doing it. My car doesn't have fuel injection so I can't do it. But I'm driving it a lot less and saving that way.
