I would get fired for telling this but to answer your question, NO, natural gas is not viable source for running any vehicle and here's why, first off let me say that I work with a natural gas company and have been in the business 38 years now...
Our company pays $12,000 per conversion to run natural gas on our company vehicles, it will never pay for itself. Most used vehicles owned by people are not worth the investment and should you buy a new vehicle look at the added cost for he conversion. Also you will need a compressor at your home or business if natural gas is available, the cheapest "slow fill" compressor that I'm aware of is $20,000 and your looking at about 7 hours to fill up, best to do it over night.
