Angry Propane Conversion

What do you guys think of propane as an allternative fuel? This gas BS is getting ridiculous. There used to be alot of it in the late 70s when it first started out. I surely would comprmise a little power in order to drive my old gas gussler.

As gasoline goes up in price so does every other form of energy. Propane maybe too expensive once the road tax is placed on it.
At one time the Canadian gov`t helped fund the installation of propane conversions on road vehicles. Made for some good explosions in garages and enclosed underground parking where it became banned in these places.
Now it seems a dead issue. Maybe worth checking out, who knows?
