Four fleets share their stories on the process of acquiring and converting vehicles to propane autogas and building the fueling infrastructure.


Lewis Pest Control is a family-owned residential and commercial pest control company serving South Alabama and Southeast Mississippi. Of 40 total fleet units, the company converted eight to run on propane autogas: three Chevrolet ½-ton and two ¾-ton pickups as well as three Ford F-150s. Two more conversions are on the way. Lewis uses a Prins bi-fuel propane system, which starts on gasoline and switches to propane after the engine heats up.

  1. I use a small fleet for my company and we are always looking to increase the life and productivity of a vehicle. Turning to more environmentally friendly methods is definitely something we are considering and eventually we definitely want to be part of the clean fuel movement. Owning a fleet company can get expensive so hopefully I'll be able to decrease some costs. Thanks for posting this information!
