I had a woman who was going to purchase both as a package for $25,000 for a handicapped transportation business. Yet she would only take two as a pair since I wanted to keep one but I decided to do it then just before pick up her partner was in a car accident and her financial backing evaporated cover so we just took them up more.

Reality is fuel is anywhere from 40 cents per gallon Slow fill at home from residential to $2 per gallon at a fast fill station. Most recent estimates from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) state that over 175,000 compressed natural gas (CNG) and other natural gas vehicles (NGVs) are being operated in the United States. With that many vehicles on the road Obviously mechanics maintain them and you don't hear stories about CNG vehicles exploding or on fire Ever. It's actually better superior fuel to gasoline just doesn't have these historical infrastructure. So the one and only disadvantage is availability of fueling stations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan tow up to 5000 pounds with weight distributing hitch What classified it insured as a minivan.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoth have small solar panel to match rear window I sourced to maintain batteries topped up if you don't use it at least every two weeks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI recommend installing an EZ-lock for wheelchair and removing the jump seat from behind the driver's seat But I haven't Bothered to unbolt it yet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eMV-1 92k VIN 523MF1B6XCM100928  $11,000\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsed but serviceable quality marine starter battery from the generator on our boat   I eliminated from the boat so repurposed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTires at 50%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne rear window has crazed micro cracks but purely cosmetic.
