Gas prices is killing me!
With all due respect to the OP and other posters, I am having a hard time working up much compassion for Cayenne owners (myself included) with our $50k-$140k vehicles with respect to high gas prices.
I bet you.. someone makes that gizmo... and BTW, the installation of a tank and piping including the 'adapter" in the fuel system (carburetor) was really not that expensive. Now, I just read that a complete CNG installation runs 18K dollars.
Never tried to add up what I spent in a week
in CO today I say $3.98/gallon for premium. california the other day was $4.60 / gallon premium
I have to fill up on my next outing, I will post my receipt.

this is only the start.
just filled up: today's fill-up.
yikes, it's only the beginning.
$101.22 @ 25.895 gallons
that was with a 5 cent discount too.

This is one of the reasons I went to a Touareg TDI when my Cayenne was traded in. Yes the diesel cost more per gallon but my MPG is mid 20's in city and mid 30's for highway in essentially the same size and weight vehicle.
... oh yeah, and the torque for the 3.0 is 406Tq stock!

And that is why we are trading and replacing all our company cars with Jetta Sportswagen diesels. Less than $30K fully loaded, great economy - 40+ miles / gallon - no electrical / hybrid crap that will go wrong and costs a fortune to repair.. strike that ... replace.... an engine that is proved to run a few 100,000 miles with some oil changes every 10K miles, a bag full of torque and a European handling and quality... Yep. See you parked on the side of the road with your Prius / Volts and other hybrids. Hope you have your red triangle handy.
