My buddies mom had a '10 TDI jetta and LOVES it. I've ridden/driven it a couple of times and its a damn nice car for what they paid for it. Bought it brand new off the lot and has averaged 40+ MPG with mostly city driving

Thats pretty impressive gas milelage, and a diesel

And yea saving money is always a plus, and more toys because of the savings is even better yet!!

And of all the cars and trucks I've owned (over 300 in all), I have never owned a diesel. Did get to drive a full size RAM with a diesel once and gotta admit, I loved it!!! The torque was AMAZING!!!

It would be nice if chrysler would push for the diesels more. I mean they have options for a diesel magnum, 300c, caliber, and patriot but they dont produce them here in the US. So far we have the diesel ram, liberty, and grand cherokee and soon to be out the diesel wrangler. I was reading on a site that the diesel 300c would get about 32+mpgs and the wrangler should get about 25+. To me this sounds like a no brainer but hey guess the top dogs at chrysler dont see that.

My cousin used to have an Isuzu P'up that was a little diesel with a stick shift. I remember in about '93 or '94 he drove from his place in South Carolina, picked me up in North Georgia and we went to a Braves game in Atlanta and back. I think it cost about $8 in fuel for the round trip. Granted, gas & diesel was a lot cheaper then, but still...

When dodge was toying around with the idea of a diesel in a 1500 ram i was thinking of buying one but they put a dampner on that.

Well I have learned some issues on the 06+ Jettas that can be pretty pricey. So looks like I might want to get an exteneded service contract with which ever one I find. Not to many certified TDIs out there though...SIGH Found about 5 so far that are all possiblites from payments as low as 179 to 260 month. Hopefully things work out with atleast one of them lol
