Considerations Shipper and Fueling Partner?
Capital Recovery-Vehicle Acquisition Cost-ROI? Maintenance Practices/Intervals-Cost? Training? LNG CNG range / Infrastructure-NG Highway? Engine Choices- What is available? Resale Market-Who is the second buyer? Specs?

NG Benefits Domestic improves national security.
Sustainability-reduce GHG and other criteria pollutants Cost-offers a significant price advantage over conventional diesel Volatility-Natural gas market is not subject to the same forces that impact the Petroleum markets.

Crude Oil vs. NG Historic Pricing
Source: Energy Information Administration (EIA)

Common NG Excuses 1. Tractors are too heavy- lighter with the elimination of DEF/DPF 2. Not enough range/miles- Multiple tank options/NG Highway 3. 9L engines are too small for 80klbs- 24 trucks that do it every day 4. MPG is terrible – no saving- 5.5 MPG 5 .ROI will fail without Government Assistance- It is working for us 6. Maintenance costs too high- Reasonable Costs/Warranty 7. Drivers won’t like them- Our drivers do 8. Shop modifications too costly- Relative to what 9. Qualcomm/Cummins can’t deliver performance metrics- You can get the same metrics you have now 10. Permitting & Construction too slow- NG Highway is moving pretty fast 11. It’s Not Safe- Used in School buses & airport vehicles 12. Customers don’t care about Sustainability- CSO’s seems to differ with that statement

LNG Profile Tractor Count: Five daycab tractors
Make: Kenworth T800, Westport 15L Fuel Type: Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) & Diesel (ULS) Fuel Capacity: LNG: 70 diesel gallon equivalents (DGE) & Diesel: 45 gallons Mileage Range: App. 350 miles on LNG Application: Dedicated fleet Implementation: October 2011

Additional Information
250-mile length of haul, looped freight Significant increase in tractor cost Full-service lease arrangement Notable elevation change – reason for 15L engine LNG fueling stations at both origin and destination Southern California (Fleet Star) to Las Vegas (Clean Energy) MPG: 5.86
