I’m less excited about this one than the last one, but just a little.

    Also…propane, really? Imagine the hassle of hauling both pieces of your mega-minivan down to the local propane dispensary for individual fills.

    Propane gets delivered directly to your home.

      Whose home? The natural gas in most gas delivery services is Natural Gas composed primarily of Methane, not Propane.

        Propane is very common as a heating fuel, usually where natural gas pipelines are not available. But you can get propane trucked to your home even in most suburbs, if you want it. They install a 500 gallon tank somewhere near your driveway, and refill it a few times a year.

        If you’ve got a propane-powered vehicle, you’re probably going to get home delivery in bulk, rather than trying to deal with retail refueling.

          Ahhh, so it can be delivered on demand, the way you stated it seemed like it was considered the default.

            Ah. My apologies, I should have been clearer. In my area, natural gas is the default, but residential propane is very common.
