They are efficient and cheaper to maintain than gasoline powered vehicles. The issue we seem to have here is not enough refueling stations.

Before the sale of the surplus truck, the total cost was $ 32,100.00. wouldnt it have been cheeper to put the ad wrap on the surplus truck the gas department already owned versus buying another truck just to advertise the towns natural gas service? Maybe it just didnt look right advertising natural gas to warm your house, while DRIVING AROUND IN A GASOLINE BURNER.
