Propane Autogas: The only financially viable, clean, alternative fuel with a business case to prove it.

Clean & Green: Where Does Propane Come From? More than 90% of domestic propane consumed is produced in the U.S. One third of the world supply is produced in Texas More than 50% of U.S. propane comes from processing natural gas

Economic Justification: Comparison of Wholesale Prices

Economic Justification: Crude Oil Prices When the economy rebounds crude will continue to rise. Can your budget handle $4.00+ gasoline?

Refueling Options: Fueling Your Fleet Install private scalable infrastructure for your fleet Fill at any Ferrellgas location nationwide On-site resupply via Ferrellgas delivery truck 24/7 emergency roadside assistance from Ferrellgas

Refueling Options: Dispenser Examples Ford Assembly Plant, Wayne MI Positive Connections, MN Shell Gas Station, Phoenix, AZ ROUSH CleanTech, MI Portland Schools, OR Prospect Schools, TX
