I've seen it on a pretty much brand new HGV, not sure which manufacturer, I was just chatting to the driver as we were doth filling up, can't remember the size of the LPG tank on his tractor unit but it was enormous, he must have had to be at the pump for ages, mine takes long enough to fill 50-60 litres god only knows how long a few hundred will take.

yes you say it takes ages but really it only takes the same as petrol, it is just the price is going up really slow, remember what the eye can see the mind believes :D
just a question for you lot.
does anybody know how much it is to convert my landy 300tdi, i mean it would be cheap to run but it will also take a hell of a long time to pay it back too :?:

Mine certainly takes ages, you can fil 2 or 3 petrol tanks in the time mine takes, people regularly do and pay for their fuel, next customer comes along etc, I'm stood there for ages.
