In my country Peru, conversions cost no more than $2,500. (With insurance) ¿How can it cost $14,000 in the USA?. In Peru, in the past 10 years THOUSANDS of cars have been converted to natural gas and LPG also.We have also a program from the government that (basically) pays for the conversion (of course you have to qualify) and then you pay it, EACH TIME YOU FILL THE TANK. That is, every car in the program is identified via rfid chips and the pumps can read it and retransmit to a data base, then a little extra is charged to your consumption of gas. That is, the more gas you charge, the fastest you pay. In this manner, specially taxis, pay the conversion in no more than 24 to 36 months... (and it feels very very easy in your wallet- in fact, sometimes you forget that you are paying 4 it). The system works with no flaws. I'm sure it can be replicated everywhere. (and I hope you all understand my rudimentary English). I really don’t get it. In my country Peru, conversions cost no more than $2,500. (With insurance) ¿How can it cost $14,000 in the USA?.

I applaud Utah for doing what they can but the problem is the insane EPA regulations that make conversion of vehicles to run on natural gas ridiculously expensive.

This would also go a long way toward helping our economy as it would lower our trade deficit since we have plenty of NG here. I’m for anything that starves OPEC.
