probably easxier to find than propane. Here in town diesel seems to be
availible at about 1/3 of the gas stations. Out of town it might be a
problem. If I could afford the diesel I could probably also afford a
Transfer Flow tank to increase my capacity. They work well, I installed
about five of them in the new Fords in our towing fleet."
Propane is hard to find and also LNG power for vehicles. Not sure if you
could fill a propane power car at a place that fills propane bottles but
they are disappearing not that bottle swap places have popped up. Diesel is
every where in Louisiana. There gas stations that carry diesel along with
truck stops. There are no lines in the diesel lanes. The lines for
gasoline remind me of the 70's embargo.
