You need to add a few facts, if you're trying to make a positive argument for propane over diesel. Main this is where did these "great savings" take place? Out west, or in the northeast? As I've already stated, propane is often twice the cost here in the northeast, as compared to out west.
Obviously, if you want to talk about projected savings, you also have to talk about price of propane versus diesel in the area where the use takes place.
Propane bus gets 4 miles per gallon. Diesel bus gets 8 miles per gallon.
Obviously, to even break even, propane will have to be half the price of diesel.
Here in New York, right now,without highway tax added, propane is $2.50 per gallon and diesel is $2.75. Propane bus is much more expensive to run. Propane bus travels 4 miles on $2.50 and the diesel bus travels 4 miles for $1.38.
