Would you be willing to buy a car powered by Natural Gas? If so, what would your expectations be?

It was a 1982 or 3 Chevy Impala which had to have about 900,000 miles on it. The only thing holding together was bailing wire and a prayer, but still there was very little acceleration and pickup.

Yeah, I used to drive Yellow Cab back in the 80s (1985-87), then laid off for a while, went back a couple of years ago, bought a cab, amassed lotsa debt. went broke, got cancer, and I'm thinking about going back in about a month, after the school elections. I know Ann Arbor pretty well.
