Yes I disagree. I can agree to that. Also I agree to point out misleading information that is presented as facts.

As for as your company. Roush will do anything to make a buck, why would ford pass this off to another comapny when they by far how the most knowledge about their products. Roush I believe is considered a upfitter in the auto world, van converters are also considered in this group. I'm waiting to get the epa mpg rating for their system, pretty sure since of their volumes the rating does not need to be done.

Why does kawi pass the propane side to other companies? I would say they have more resources than onyx. Is it because they are unsure of the market?

Propane has been around very long time. It was used in the 80's. What has changed since then? I notice a different means of delivery in current vehicles, a comparison could be a carb to fuel injection. I just don't see why the push besides being green and local fuel (which price raises and lowers with gas).

I still think I'm going to switch a mower over to propane to try it. The hardest part is there is very little real testing, mostly opinions/experience. And when you push for numbers you get percentages instead of real numbers. I want to know the baseline number and propane number, nobody states those.

We will disagree.

You know DJ, you're absolutely correct. I would also like to see real numbers. Maybe we can strike a deal.

As far as Dyno tests and such, though, I'm going to have to trust Roush and all the others.

The biggest difference between then and now is technology. Like I said, comparing the 20# cell phones of the nineties to todays.
