It has been just five years since the Cummins Westport ISL G made natural gas a viable fueling option for a handful of industry segments, such as port-based container trucks, refuse trucks, and some vocational and construction applications.

"That engine was been touted for two or three years prior to its launch," said Freightliner Natural Gas Sales Manager Bob Carrick. "Never before has the cart been so far ahead of the horse than was the case with the ISX12 G." 

Freightliner has about 100 trucks in service now equipped with the ISX12 G and Allison 4000 automatic transmissions. Carrick said they have been on the road for a little more than a year, and they have been performing well.
