Article Abstract:

Two men attempt to cross the US in a Volvo V70 dual-fuel station wagon that uses compressed natural gas (CNG) and gasoline. There are problems finding gas stations that have CNG, and when the drivers find one they often are not made to pay for the CNG. The drivers are forced to give up, because the infrastructure doesn't exist to support CNG vehicles.

Article Abstract:

The US market for station wagons has been eclipsed by minivans and sport utility vehicles, but European carmakers still supply a flourishing market. The Volvo and Audi models compared are similar in many respects, with the Volvo having the cargo edge, and the Audi winning on style and handling.
