"America's Full of Energy"
CNG is Compressed Natural Gas and it works.
At this time, it's just one of several alternatives that could be the future of feuling our motor vehicles...

John Ransom discusses this option at Townhall.com:
"The more I look into CNG for vehicles, the better the news gets. There is no refining required, as is necessary with crude oil. And America has a phenomenal natural supply. According to the CIA’s World Fact Book, the United States ranks number six, with nearly as much natural gas as Saudi Arabia.
The CNG that gets delivered to homes for heating and cooking is the same gas that fuels a CNG vehicle. So, while the distribution system is already in place for at-home fill-ups, the pressure is not sufficient to top off your car directly. So far, just one company, BRC FuelMaker, offers a solution. For about $4,500 plus installation, you can buy their Phill Home CNG Fuel Station that slowly pumps CNG directly into your car at the necessary compression. Honda has invested heavily in BRC to keep this option available to American customers."
