And you can also hook your camp stove onto it. Or the available rear bumper mounted gas grill.

Do have a place to fill it? You can expect to only get about 150 miles of range with CNG. There is no real savings with CNG.

Sure, but at half the range of gasoline and no place to fill the tank. Some great savings there.

well like said in the add, he cant really use it cuzz there's nowhere to fill it in dallas/ fort worth. If you live near a natural gas source, i'd say go for it. plus it's a clean looking xj anyways
