Ford F-150, Natural Gas Edition

Ford F-150 CNG

The last generation of Ford F-150s offered a natural gas version of the six-cylinder engine.  The demand was higher for that engine than Ford anticipated, so they’re now offering a 5.0-liter V8 natural gas option.  Awesome!

You can check out a few more details over at Autoblog.  Ford’s website doesn’t make it easy to find information on the natural gas options, but I imagine if someone walked into a dealership and requested one that the salesmen would be happy to help.

The obvious drawback is refueling.  If there are no CNG stations in your area, this truck will be ridiculously impractical.  If you’re not going to be deterred, however, you could get a Phill home refilling station.  Be forewarned that refilling at home can have detrimental effects on your warranty.  Read it carefully before deciding.
