I was wondering if the ICE in the Prius can be converted to use CNG and am wondering if anyone knows how difficult this may be. Honda is selling home CNG fueling units and since CNG is a fuel not dependent on foreign sources ( well, Canada in some cases) I think it might be a good thing to look at. Oil is not going to get any cheaper and although all energy sources are going to increase in price, I would rather give my dollars to a domestic supplier than a foreign one.
I have also read that an ICE run on CNG requires oil changes once a year and will last virtually forever because of the cleanliness of the fuel. Wouldn't mind replacing the battery every 200,000 mi. if the rest of the car holds up.
