It looks like they have better ways of doing the tanks now, then when we had our truck.

Is that stuff flameable? If so, that doesnt look like a good place to place the tanks

I've heard about this from someone at work and thought it was crazy. He's from Poland and he says thats what a lot of people do is get those conversion kits and you save more on gas money and it last longer. Somewhere along those lines.

Its not so much a specific Toyota application would be needed...but the 7M isnt a diesel engine

Propane tanks are safer than gas tanks...

Just judging the offset of lower BTUs, conversion price, and how much the octane equivilent will be...104 octane is expencive vs. propane
