#9 of 12 Re: Thinking of a new 2008 Civic GX [liderbug] by ganache000 Jul 19, 2008 (9:24 am)
Replying to: liderbug (Mar 31, 2008 1:53 pm) It is my understanding that they do not sell Gx's in Colorado. When I took mine to the dealer to buy a part the Service Tech indicated that he had never worked on one before. I have run into several CNG cars in COS, usually at the CNG gas station. One of the PPLD Bookmobiles uses CNG and I see it at the station quite often. I do not know if there is an installer for the PHILL in COS. I originally looked into one but it was too much - there was no financial payback. I think you would enjoy it - you just have to gas up at only one place in town. It is located on Tia Juana (about 1/2 block from Fargo's Pizza off of Platte near Circle). If the gas station is way out of your normal driving that might be a hassle. I drive close to there four times a week - so it is easy for me. I purchased mine used from out of state and had it shipped here.

Because there is only 1 pump in town I did some more research and bought a Civic Hybrid. As much as I wanted the GX I'm very happy with the hybrid. I'm getting 55-56 MPG and it keeps getting better. I expect to get a 600 mile tank soon (10gal tank). Replies to this message: mr_interfuel (Sep 09, 2008 11:18 am)

Fill at home for a buck a gallon. Natural gas prices just dropped ~40% in a month. I have saved ~$10 in fuel over the last three years by filling at home. Have you looked at the tax benefits? I just bought a 2008 GX and will be selling my 2-yr old 2007 GX FOR A PROFIT.
#12 of 12 Element NGV ??? by hihostevo Feb 19, 2009 (4:05 pm)
I am currently driving a gasoline Element and doing research on the Civic GX.   One of the big issues is the carrying capacity of the GX for me. An Element that ran CNG would be terrific! Don't suppose you have any idea or links as to when it might be released?
