The downside was only about 125 miles range with two 25 gallon tanks at 3K psi, less in winter when they added air to keep pressure up. I had to refuel 3 times a day in winter

In all honesty I would love to head straight into CNG, in my world I have one pump, its at the airport which is on the commute homebound and very reliable but it's a bit more than gas. I would also be filling up every day. I AM curious about home refueling, I've done done google research over the past couple of years with little results. The "Phill" that was sold with the Civic GX seemed to have disappeared but I would LOVE to have one or something like it. If I lived in Utah it would be game on.
