"A growing number of our customers — in a growing number of applications — are enjoying the economic
benefits of fueling their operations with
natural gas, not the least of which is the
fact that natural gas is sourced almost
entirely from North America," says Robert
Woodall, Peterbilt Director of Sales &
Marketing. "The pairing of the dedicated
natural gas engine with Peterbilt provides
customers exceptional fuel economy with
an environment-friendly fuel that helps
lower operating costs."
Peterbilt has been manufacturing
trucks featuring liquefied natural gas
(LNG) and compressed natural gas
(CNG) fuel systems since 1996. Peterbilt
leads the industry with approximately 40
percent market share of Class 6-8 natural
gas vehicle sales. FC
