ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS HAVE CHANGED

Propane’s emissions profile looks a lot like the emissions profile of natural gas. They both burn cleaner than gasoline and diesel in most on-road applications. Unlike natural gas, which is mostly methane, propane autogas is not a greenhouse gas. It doesn’t contaminate air, soil, or water. That means that switching to propane autogas can help you look out for the health of your drivers, your service techs, your customers, and your families, friends, and neighbors.

GAS PRICES HAVE CHANGED 25 years Atlanta 1989 San Diego 2014

SHUTTLE VANS Colorado Mountain Express operates a shuttle service for the resorts in Vail, Colorado, using 15-passenger Roush CleanTech Ford E-350 vans. Robert Tschupp, the company's vice president and general manager, says each van is saving him $18,600 a year in fuel costs. “Propane autogas has become the alternative fuel of choice for the shared-ride industry,” he says. “This domestic fuel is not only more economical than gasoline, its clean-burning properties work to preserve the pristine environment in which we live and work — something that is extremely important to our company.”

Why is propane autogas is good for fleets? Propane autogas offers: Lower Operating Costs, primarily from lower fuel costs. Affordable refueling infrastructure options as well as public refueling options Proven performance Lowers emissions American-made, reducing our dependence on foreign oil.
