Profile Information
- Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?
- Maybe--But Not Sure What to Organize
- Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:
- We've been looking at CNG vehicles for a few years now, and recently sold our Saturn to buy a used F150 CNG truck. Savings on the gas bill is ~$10/day. This is a great thing that many americans are blindly dismissing
- What excites you about this campaign?
- The economic and environmental benefits are beyond listing, but for starters, reducing our dependence upon foreign energy. Beyond that, the financial savings for CNG are outstanding. Environmentally, it's a sound choice, with less CO2 emissions than any other fuel. Did I mention it's plentiful in the US?
- What do you want to do to help?
- I'm not very good at organizing, but I'm trying to help however I can. I'll start by pushing the plan to friends and collegues.

Getting a CNG vehicle
It was a hot wednesday afternoon, and gasoline was $3.79 per gallon, so I bought a CNG Ford F-150. It's a 2002 model, and I bought it on eBay. Actually, this is something that we've been looking at for some time, and as gasoline prices continue to skyrocket, it seems more and more like the right decision. Currently, CNG is $0.91 (that's right, ninety-one cents) per gallon.
With a 42.5 mile one-way commute, my Saturn Vue was using 3.4 gallons of gas per day minimum. That's $12.89 per day or $65… Continue

Home Wind Turbine said… - .
Hello David, These new roof mounting residential wind turbine kits are shipping now. They are sleek, attractive, and well designed. These are actually a home appliance on the roof, much like an antennae or satellite dish. They are as easy to install as other home appliances, like dishwasher, home theatre, etc. It's a nice clean way for you to begin your Personal Energy Plan. These systems are inexpensive, easy to install, scaleable.
Your Wind blows stronger in winter, Your Sun shines stronger in summer. This hybrid wind/solar system combines these cycles to give a more even flow of energy year round. This homeowner sized wind/solar system provides free power for your home. Many customers have found it easy to become customer/dealers of our kits. Customers can become a dealer with no further investment, they see quickly how people are easy to get interested.
I have used the same systems save money on my electricity costs from day one and David, you can too. Your local wind resources are so good in Oklahoma. Check these windmaps and see can you pinpoint what number your area is in. Zone 2 is OK, anything over 2 is (very) good. First double check your wind resources from the map and links below.

PLEASE email the Pickens Plan video to everyone you know. Ask them to join. Ask them to pass it along. Time is of the essence. If every member had 10 friends join today, we could put the number of members over 1 million very quickly!
If we can not get critical numbers how can we take advantage of this golden opportunity? High gas prices have "woken up" America to our plight and a paradigm shift like not other is in the wind. We need to do this now.
So many new members write "I want to help, what can I do?" This is a start. We may not get to the next step if we can not get this one done.
Our leaders can not ignore millions of members of the Pickens Plan. We are not there yet. One person can make a difference.
Let me know how it goes.
