Well they're not on every other corner like gasoline stations, but there's about 50 or so refueling stations in the LA/Orange County area, so it's not that terrible an inconvenience.

Normally this is not a problem, as there are several refilling stations ... I just have to be aware of the fuel situation and whether there are any stations where I'm going.
This suggests that you do not have the option of running on regular gasoline? Is this the case?
Back in the 1960s, while hitch-hiking in Italy, I got a ride with a salesman whose car ran on either gas or gasoline. He showed off the switch on his dashboard that he flicked to change from one to the other. Also, he showed me that the tank for gas took up some, but less than half, the space in his trunk. He liked the dual system because he could purchase gas more cheaply than gasoline, but could not buy it everywhere.
How much more would you have had to pay to acquire a similar dual system?
If your vehicle runs on either type of fuel, can you still get a sticker to drive in the restricted lanes?

He said no, a vehicle that uses gasoline at all can not use the restricted lane. I'm sure his vehicle is cheaper being optimized to run on one fuel only. The true prices are up to Matt.
