I looked at all the brands and ended up with a Silverado 1500 that gets 18.5 mpg highway (327 with a heavy foot on the gas). I like it a lot, has the LT3 leather trim and all that.
It's very hard to get vehicles designed to run on LPG to run clean (forklifts, etc). The few that do have several computers involved. So running something designed for the higher BTU gasoline isn't going to make out too well. They just don't last very long. Plus, you lose quite a bit of power, and LP prices are going up.
What about LPG? AS mentioned a friend in my village runs his Chevy Avalanche 4x4 Vortec on LPG/propane. Here it is fairly available and much cheaper than gas, and if not available one can run on gas just like normal. A lot of Volvo V70 taxis run on LPG in Oslo, from what I know.
