Natural gas has always been the least sexy alt-fuel, but an advocacy group is aiming to change that with a saucy new video on YouTube.
EVs have the Volt, hydrogen has the FCX – heck, even biodiesel has old Benzes and Willie Nelson, which apparently works for some folks. But think about natural gas and you'll undoubtedly picture dinged up Crown Vics sitting in a City Hall parking lot.
The natural gas advocates at NGVsNow wanted to change the public's perception of their favorite fuel, so they put together a pro-NGVs video that has more extended double entendres than the Betty White Muffin sketch.
In the video, available on the group's website and on YouTube, everyone from a young couple to a lonely limo driver brags about how they "get it." Of course, "it" is natural gas, and it's something that can be got at some gas stations and from home refueling appliances, like the one shown above.
According to NGVsNow, the video got over 4,000 hits in the first 36 hours it was up and, unusually for YouTube, generated a nearly-intelligent discussion among commenters about the merits of natural gas as an alternative fuel.
