In European countries like The Netherlands, France & Italy LPG-systems have a widespread use. The past decade or so the use of LPG in newly sold cars has been overshadowed by diesel, but LPG is working on a come back with all the "green" discussions going on. I have a new Citroën which runs on LPG. After the first 10.000 km the oil is as clean as on day one. And I love it running my car on what is basically a waste product.

Many of the bigger historic military vehicles like GMCs (and Dodges) here run on LPG. Keep Them Rolling even allows LPG systems in large vehicles (not Jeeps) when scrutinising for originality.
