Sorry, Jeremy, Didn't intend to stir up a deep discussion on CNG/etc.
Was just wanting to hear why you were interested in the CNG.
Seems that your (primarily) considering it for mileage.
As far as the business itself, you should probably look into it pretty heavily before investing.
With the Job market like it is,, lots of people (that have a truck and no job) are doing hauling.
So, I suspect there is probably a lot of (inexpensive) haulers out there, competing for the loads..
Good luck on the idea though...
Ride safe, Ted
