We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

Holy Crap!!!! So why doesn't everyone buy one? Are good deals just hard to find? Do manufacturers offer them or do you have to find someone that has converted one?

She should have put: "Dear Joe, As far as I know, violant criminals don't know about Park City and therefore never come here. I'm sure that if anything did happen, a swift ninja kick will suffice. Why do you feel you need that "thing" while vacationing (I didn't know I was vacationing when I drive to Park City.... lucky me!) in our city."

Supply and demand, my friend. Look on KSL, you will be hard pressed to find a decent used natural gas vehicle under $10,000. EPA certified conversions cost about $10,000 as well. The only automaker that currently offers a new natural gas powered vehicle is Honda, with the Honda Civic GX.

Why would anybody name their child Candy?
Anyway, no their laws are not in keeping with the law, but they won't change them until we make them do it, now how do we go about this?

Why does this article quote a number significantly less than yours for conversion??

That's propane, which is more pricey.
HIs is the stuff that is piped into your house.

1. That article was written in 1972.
2. My car runs on natural gas, compressed to 3000 psi, not liquid propane.
3. My car was not converted, it was factory built for $5,000 more than retail price.
4. Most cars are controlled by an on board diagnostic computer, that hippie bus is carburated.
5. Conversions used to be cheaper. Many people now want their cars to use a less expensive, or cleaner fuel. Since there are only a handful of EPA certified installers available, wait times are long, and they can charge a premium.
6. Yes, you can buy a CNG kit for about $2,000 and install it yourself. Is it legal? No, your vehicle will not pass an emissions check.
7. Yes, there are mechanics that will install a CNG system for $5,000, instead of $10,000. Are they certified? No, again, your car will not pass an emissions test.
Believe me, I want everybody here to be able to pay $70 dollars ($355 with inflation from 1972 to 2007) for a conversion. It will not happen. Even if you did what this article says, liquid propane is only about $1 per gallon cheaper than gasoline. And you would need a hippie bus!

ok...
What is a rubber flipper? Is it a rubber band gun? I can only assume so.
I searched for it on the internet and only found that they are illegal in Salt Lake City, Park City, somewhere in CA.
I also found the two paddle flippers on a pinball machine that have the rubber bands around them are also called rubber flippers

Seriously, this is almost as bad as South Jordan. No nerf darts for my kids while hanging out in Park City.

That is some bull......NO rubber flippers except at a rubber flipper range?
I think they need to wake up and realize that they're stupid.

Anyone know if the BATFRFE (Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco Firearms Rubber Flippers Etcetera) has one of those $200 stamps to pre-empt this Rubber Flipper ban? Of course, the rubber needs to be certified pre-1986, and of course, not one of those "high capacity" rubbers, and absolutely not "assault rubber" (As we all know, rubber flippers were not affected by the sunset of the Clinton administration) After all, "it's for the children!!!"
Anyone NOT nauseated yet?
