My Reliable Ford

I bought my 95 F150 used in 1999. The truck is used as a work truck and at the time of purchase I averaged 40k miles per year. In 2001 I moved my family back to Texas from Mississippi where my daily commute averaged 150 miles round trip. (about 50k per year) I drove the truck until February 14, 2010 when the transmission gave up the fight. However I am not disappointed in the least that is the first mechanical break down the truck has encountered 370269 miles. Original engine equipment including hoses. I change plugs and oil on a regular basis. This is a great truck. I purchased another F150 2006 model of which I believe will out do my 95. I will replace the transmission and give the 95 to my son and hope he enjoys driving it as I have. Thanks Ford.

Does Ford offer a CNG (compressed natural gas) bi-fuel option in the F-150 truck? CNG is at least 1/2 the cost of gasoline or diesel fuel. There is zero foriegn oil dependancy when using CNG as your fuel. When the E-85 craze hit most of the car manufacturers decided to abandon the CNG options. Ethanol or E-85 is not the answer. I realize that the fuel tanks are cumbersome to deal with but I feel that there are options that could be made to try and fit them into the vehicles.
