We still have some local to me, diesel here went up to $2.45 CAN/L and propane is ~$1.30/L, so I think at that price it makes sense to convert over?In this situation, how many consider lpg installation?

Who know how long these prices will last though?
What would be the cost to convert and what would the savings? So as to determine ROI. Edit: is it even legal? or legal for only certain years?In this situation, how many consider lpg installation?

Interest, I’m old enough to have ridden in those old cars. My parents owned the old bonnevilles and impalas, and numerous others. Those big old cars would float down the road in very comfortable style, but steering and stopping were very lacking compared to to todays cars. The cars I’m talking were from the late fifties to early seventies. Just my experience.
Can't believe the price of diesel and the speed the small companies 18 wheelers are running 72-75 in a 70 where the big trucking companies still under 68 looking for better mpg.
According to eu retrofit law, it's legal to install. You have to check if preferred lpg system mfg has a kit for your engine model. Efi ,tsi,... not a problem.
Price around 1000€ or even less(eu sizes engine). Advanced systems 2x , or so. V8 etc
Lpg is 1/2 cost or less, also less taxed. Co2 benefits
But in
ymmvVag, fiat sells cng ready cars, but pumps are rare in my country.
Add my 88 E-150 to the list, it has two gas tanks. If I let it run down I'd need a home equity loan to fill it with the ridiculous gas prices we currently have.
I know LPG is cleaner burning with virtually no CO but if an engine makes power it makes CO2.
I can’t believe I just saw $7 diesel at a normal station. Not the high priced one. It was $7.15 at the expensive station.

My 13 Tacoma with the 4.0 knocks/pings on 87,89, and 93. Less so with 93. I even had the TSB done that would make the condition occur less. Kind of disappointing because it only has 56k on it.
So I just use 87 and live with it.

The most expensive vehicles are those that take diesel and a lot of it.
Diesel currently is $6/gallon with regular hovering at $4.05/gallon.
Consumer diesels are dead .

The Volkswagen diesel scandal was the death knell for diesel cars, heavy-duty diesel 'work' trucks are the only diesels that will stick around for a while longer.
I put $80 in my Jeep yesterday at the cheapest station around. Didn't fill it.

Regular is now close to $2/L and 91 is more than $2/L. The Jeep holds 93L, so a fill from ~1/8 tank is going to cost >$170.00.
2008 Chevy Suburban: 31 gallon fill.
Probably any diesel right now...CR has provided a list of the most expensive vehicles to fill.
I know most on this site find CR to provide skewed information, but tank capacity is something that's hard to mess up.
Given the price of gas locally (in the PNW where I reside) is expected to hit $2.16/liter ($6.39/gallon) this weekend, this should be quite a shock to those with larger vehicles.
I couldnt' imagine spending over $200 CAD to fill...I'd rather walk!
It also has to do with Insurance rates. Insurance is cheaper on a commercial truck with a max speed of 68 verses how ever fast it will go.
