I've read that one problem can be inconsistant air/fuel ratio due to decreasing pressure inside your tank. I'm sure it can work well though. I've seen some cars that did not use gasoline at all, just propane. In some countries where gasoline is very expensive, propane retrofit kits are popular to save money. They usually result in a small performance decrease, but its worth it to the people who buy them.

if they have a good pressure regulator, it shouldnt fluxuate. I've always wondered, why does propane add so much power to deisels? Is it cuz of the cooling effect?
