That would be natural gas. Take the natural gas and let it break down into hydrogen in side the combustion chamber of your engine. Problem solved, range extended.
Balance that with burning natural gas in an engine. I don't know how the energy inputs vs. outputs break down, but I'll bet there is little to no advantage to making hydrogen from natural gas over direct combustion.
