This is a CNG truck with a 35 gal gasoline tank and two 9 gal CNG tanks --- the truck was purchased to save fuel money by using primarily CNG the truck computer program switches the CNG to use gasoline too often. We use 1/4 tank of gasoline every week -- the truck is a CNG vehicle not a gasoline truck -- the dealer says Ram is coming up with a new computer program the correct this although none of the dealers can tell us when.
