Old Friend

In may 1994 I bought a new F-150 300 cu.in six / manual transmission,to replace 1982 F-100(same engine)
In 2006 I bought a new F-150 (4.2 lt. /manual transmission)I thought about selling the 1994 (paint was original) and my wife suggested we keep it since it had given great service.no major repairs.so she had a new paint job put on( ORIGINAL: RED ELECTRIC METALLIC. after over 101,600 miles the truck still runs like it was new,and now looks like it . even though I drive the 2006 I still find myself driving old red.IT is just like a good friend. now we have 2 grandsons fighting over who gets old red and I just smile and say isn’t going to happen. not to my old friend

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.
