Fueling up here wouldn't be a problem since most of the Meijers stores have natural gas fueling pumps, not to mention a lot of the truck stops
Natural-Gas Guzzler
Will Honda’s natural-gas-powered Civic GX blow other “green†cars off the road? See the first reports from our year-long in-depth test
By Eric Adams and the PopSci Staff | November 2006
Behold the car that could displace the Toyota Prius as the eco-ride of choice. The new natural-gas-powered Honda Civic GX uses domestically produced fuel—the same stuff your gas stove burns—that costs as little as one third the price of gasoline. The American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy calls it the cleanest-burning internal-combustion vehicle on Earth.
So what’s not to like? Only the scarcity of places to fuel up. Honda has sold compressed-natural-gas (CNG) Civics to fleet operators for eight years—because they have their own CNG pumps, they don’t have to search for the rare public ones. But thanks to a new home fueling station, anyone can fill up in their driveway.
