    UPS gas\diesel fleets will be converting to LNG.

    Between 2000 and 2009, the United Parcel Service (UPS) increased the fuel efficiency across its fleet of 60,000 delivery vehicles by a relatively remarkable ten percent (with more on the way). Part of that boost is attributed to UPS' extensive deployment of alternative fuel vehicles, like the 48 Kenworth-built, liquefied natural gas- (LNG-) fueled heavy-duty trucks that the delivery company will soon add to its fleet.

    UPS will deploy the LNG-fueled trucks in the western U.S. later this year. The four dozen heavy-duty haulers will replace outdated diesel trucks and are claimed to reduce CO2 emissions by 25 percent compared to the soon-to-be retired rigs. Manufactured by Kenworth and outfitted with Westport's LNG setup, UPS' fleet of 48 LNG tractors will pull trailers along a route linking Ontario, CA and Las Vegas, NV.

    UPS claims that it's the only private delivery company to utilize LNG technology to power a portion of its vehicles. It also boasts that it operates 1,100 natural gas and 1,914 alternative technology vehicles. We're starting to think that some of them big brown trucks are actually fairly green.

    Real God like of you to judge me. However I was born and raised a Mormon and attended Temple for many years. I've in my spare time taken non credit theology courses through Utah State U And the U of W.

    Far from your preconvictions and limited opinion of me I ... have a natural curiosity about religions of the world and how they effect peoples day to day lives.

    Judging Ms Bochmann by her own statements lead me to believe and correctly so that she believes that dinosaurs are the source of oil.. when we all know God just placed there for us to exploit. I think he did it just before he ripped the rib out of Adam ....

    That is a contradiction of an earlier post.

    Keeps assholes like you guessing ... I do admit a very limited knowledge of the Muslim faith however unlike many here I'm learning more about the religion.. Which btw is really close to our religion right down to the stonning ... and murdering the unbelievers ... 50 million indiginus people would know ... even a few million Muslims during the British reign over the middle east.
