I wasn't trying to directly compare propane and natural gas. At the time propane was cheap and gas was expensive. People paid lots of money to have vehicles converted and gas stations began installing the infrastructure to service those vehicles. Then the price of propane went up and gas came down leaving a bunch of vehicles that nobody wanted. Now you have to look around to find a gas station that will fill a propane vehicle, just guessing maybe 1 in 30?
Also I'm not an expert by any means but you can't directly compare the two anyway. The same volume of propane will create a lot more energy than natural gas. I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will elaborate.
