I bet I can get like 90mpg. 3300lb jetta VS 1500lb metro / 1.9L tdi + .8xx 5th gear and 3.14 R&P \* 72.5mph - fat chicks + painters taping up all body gaps, removing roof antenna, side pass side mirror & over inflating 12" tires with unutanium gas (lighter 3 fold than helium) = KING OF TDI KLUB!!! ---

Using my vehicle ($2000) getting an average of 17mpg vs a $6500 used diesel getting 40mpg it’d take 45,000 miles to make up the cost. Vs a $5500 diesel getting 40mpg, 35,000 miles and so on. VS a $4000 diesel getting 50mpg it’d only take 16,500 miles. All based on current figures and assuming there is no unusual problems. So basically, if you have a diesel, KEEP IT so it’s worth it. ---
