My 1986 gas Jetta got 40mpg, and gas is cheaper than diesel. How is this revolutionary?

Wonderful. I wonder how much VW will add to the price-premium?

I had read that this car was projected to get close to 60 MPG. What happened?

Insetad of Jettas, VW should be focusing on higher-mileage Rabbit TDIs. I’m waiting for these to come out before I trade for my next commute car.

the money you get back for the tax creidt can be used to pay for the repairs to the electrical system of your VW that will go on the fritz about 6 months after you buy it.

Don’t worry, the VW dealers will just add an extra $1300 above sticker price.

(Can you tell I’m cynical about VW sales policies?)

I asked a guy who owns one, what is mileage was...26 mpg.

He owns it because he lives in Brownsville Texas and crosses the border for cheaper diesel.
