Ferrellgas' ROUSH Performance liquid propane-injected Ford F-250s continue to hit the road spreading the word about the benefits of propane as an engine fuel. We're logging thousands of miles on streets and highways all over the country to show that these hardworking vehicles are the right solution for fleets and individuals, and that propane is the smart, economical choice. Come see us in:

• Tallahassee (Nov. 9)
• Pinellas Park (Nov. 11)
• Ft. Myers (Nov. 12)
• Miami (Nov. 13)
• Ft. Lauderdale (Nov. 16)
• Jupiter (Nov. 17)
• Stuart/Ft. Pierce (Nov. 18)
• Orlando (Nov. 19)
• Jacksonville (Nov. 20)

• The ROUSH Liquid Propane Injected F-250 has the same horsepower (300 HP) and torque (365 lb.-ft.) as a comparable gasoline-powered truck. There is no loss of towing capacity with using propane as the fuel. This uses the 5.4L, 3V V-8 as the base engine.
• Fleet operators do not have to sacrifice performance for environmental friendliness. The power, acceleration, payload, and drivability of propane-fueled vehicles are comparable to gasoline engines.
• The ROUSH F-250 LPi will be available for kit or vehicle upfit at ROUSH (with up to $5,000 Federal Tax Credit… local and state opportunities may also be available).
• The F-250 in-bed tank provides about 55-gallons of propane which will result in a range of approximately 450 miles (depending on base chassis and driving habits).
• Trucks have a 3-year/36,000 mile warranty
• Among the components changed by ROUSH are the fuel tank with integrated fuel pump, wiring and valving; stainless steel fuel lines; billet aluminum fuel rails; an upgraded custom ROUSH PCM calibration; and all necessary wiring, hardware and instructions.

• The cost of propane as a motor fuel is less than gasoline or diesel.
• Federal tax incentives are available through 2010 for both new alternative fuel vehicles and vehicles converted to run on an alternative fuel. Many states also offer additional incentives and rebates.
• Propane vehicles have the longest driving range of any alternative fuel – more than 250 percent farther than compressed natural gas, about 60 percent farther than methanol, and 25 percent farther than ethanol.
• Those who drive propane-powered vehicles say that there are no significant driving differences between dedicated propane vehicles and gasoline-powered ones.
• Many propane vehicle fleets have reported two to three years longer service life and extended intervals between required maintenances compared to gasoline vehicles.
• Ample propane motor fuel supply infrastructure is in place in the United States, and additional refueling stations are being added frequently.
• Propane vehicle tanks are constructed from carbon steel under code developed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and are 20 times more puncture resistant. They can withstand far more pressure than a typical gasoline, methanol or ethanol tank.
• Propane exhaust creates 60 to 70 percent less smog-producing hydrocarbons than gasoline. (Southwest Research Institute)
• Compared to gasoline, propane yields 12 percent less carbon dioxide, about 20 percent less nitrogen oxides, and as much as 60 percent less carbon monoxide. (World Liquid Propane Gas Association, January 2003; California Energy Commission, January 2003)
• Propane cuts emissions of toxins and carcinogens like benzene and toluene by up to 96 percent compared to gasoline. (Southwest Research Institute)
• Propane’s octane rating is 104, while premium grade gasoline’s is only 91to 92, which allows for a higher compression ratio in the engine and greater engine efficiency. This leads to significant reductions in exhaust emissions like carbon monoxide.
