Sarasota sheriff switches fleet to propane power
The Sarasota County sheriff’s department plans converting 60 patrol vehicles to liquid propane to cut costs, with a 5 6 month payback per vehicle. Two cars already converted at a cost of 650 dollars each. Propane should burn cleaner with no carbon build up but fueling sites are limited. Two service stations will operate in the county. Northern Gas Co will supply propane and the main patrol HQ moves to Osprey. The kit and carburetors are still on order.
