Whenever we ask operators about using alternative fuel vehicles in their fleets, they inevitably complain about the lack of fuel stations in their area and how to find them.

(If you're in Iowa or nearby states, you're probably near fuel stations offering ethanol, which is a plus). The U.S. Dept. of Energy offers a helpful site for finding alternative fuel stations across the country. You can search by fuel type, city/state, and zip code.
