The LP is about half the price of Petrol, and the engine runs the same. Not long ago the Australian government gave a 2k rebate to anyone converting their car to duel fuel and that made it virtually free. But even without that rebate, it is the most economical thing to do. Americans grow enough ethanol crops to literally grow their own fuel. Why always the fatalist 'OMG there's no gasoline, what shall we do?!" crap? More, if Hemp were used, rather than corn, there would also be cloth and lumber from the stalks and oil from the seed. Remember the words of George Washington. In Australia LP gas is available at service stations and there are many cars that run on duel fuel.
