Reply #1: One thing that has always completely baffled me

[david_vincent]

is why Americans never try to find another way to power their
cars.
For 30 years, some Canadians have been converting their cars & trucks to run on propane. Out in the woods, loggers and others who earn
their living from hard, dangerous labor consider propane the best
way to go, and they usually convert a truck as soon as they buy it.
Yet here in the States, you never see or hear of anyone doing this.
Why not? What's wrong with Americans? Sheer laziness or complacency?
Everyone complains about the cost of gas, but no one ever seems
to take steps...
