I noticed that you are in Austin and thought your might be interested in knowing a little more about Natural Gas Vehicle options here in Central Texas.

The Honda GX isn't the only EPA approved CNG vehicle. I drive a new EPA Certified Ford Focus with leather interior and audiophile sound system with Sync and with the tax credits and rebates, it cost much less than the Civic GX. Other vehicles are also available and more are coming soon. Click here for additional details.

There is still only one public fueling station in Austin, but I am confident we'll see more built soon. I'm even looking at putting one in myself. In the meantime, you can always fill up at home the way Boone does with a Phill from Fox Service Company.

If you'd like to learn more about Natural Gas Vehicles, please don't hesitate to contact me anytime.

Last year I helped so many members of Pickens Plan learn about personal home energy plans. It's all about conservation of power, and home power generation, things I have been doing at my residence to lower my electricity costs. Send me a friend request a to add me David, I'd be honored to have you as a friend here.

BTW, Texas: I just posted an article link on my pickens page about Home Wind Systems in Texas. Your state's representatives, governor, and public utility commission officials are not in your corner with this "weak policy" on Net Metering. Instead they have the tables turned against green power for businesses and homeowners. Texas has created multiple sets of rules for loopholes and you have less rights than people in other states. You should read that article, important.

I have volunteered for the Pickens Army!! Some good ideas, and some problems also. The generating capacity must remain the same so on those dog days of hot summer and there is no wind, we will use massive amounts of energy. Therefore, they must continue to build power plants using the normal energy sources such as oil, coal, gas, and nukes.

It is a step in the right direction, with many other sources to backup each other. In the end, I think a solution can be had...
