You can't simply extrapolate that experience to the entire nationwide
fleet of private vehicles. For one thing, the infrastructure to
distribute fuel on such a massive scale simply doesn't exist.

But the infrastructure can be greatly improved. I'd be fearful of
taking a NG vehicle on a vacation trip, but for cab fleets, delivery
fleets, police cars, it is a snap to do. Most of those never travel
more than a quarter tank of fuel from home so re-fueling from a
central point is easy.

In cities, there is some practicality for private use too.

Don't forget, there was a time that plain old gas stations did not
exit but the demand for them cause them to be built. NG would be no
different.

The recent creation of the cellphone network infrastructure comes to mind.
