If you don't live in CA, NY, or Canada, filling stations will be harder to come by, but you can always install a natural gas compressor in your home garage and fill it there. It's nice to fill your car every night and never have to worry about going to a gas station. The Honda CNG vehicles can only go around 250-300 miles on a full tank, so they wouldn't be good for long distance travel. Also trunk space is limited because of the gas tank. But those are the only negatives. The positives: You'll pay about 1/2 the price of regular gas, the cars run completely quiet, the only "fumes" they emit are water vapor, you can get major tax deductions for having an energy efficient vehicle, and in many states you can use HOV lanes without needing an extra passenger. If I had the money, I would buy one tomorrow. I definitely would.
