Replying to: sebring95 (Mar 13, 2009 6:13 pm) My '05 TDI looks like it might have around 1/8 inch of soot by the time it hits 150k miles. The previous owner must have abused it just about right.

Replying to: siberia (Mar 14, 2009 8:11 am) There's lots of chatter on the internet about how great 'clean diesels' are now, so hopefully the ULSD will become avaliable at more stations. Honda has a new 4 cyl, clean diesel on the way in the Accord later this year..so that might finally break the ice and get the oil companies into the 21 century. Postings like this road test of a nice 06' have got to be helping wake up the public....(the car has ben sold) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5aDihD1AqI&feature=related |

Well, I found a 'shadow blue with grey leather' pckage 2 Jetta in the Utah Auto trader for $14885. It had about 70,000 miles and looked to be in minty condition. When I was able to contact the dealer about it today, they told me it had a "blown turbo" and was going to the dealership wholesale auction...tomorrow. Then they said what would you offer us for it? Keep in mind I live 1000 miles away and have no idea of what the repairs could come to, and if they did they weren't saying. Sorry to say I choked and told them I could not imagine what a dollar figure for the Jetta might be under these circumstances and said, take it out back and put it out of it's misery. Other than that it was just what I am looking for..........

on highways i've been driving in the right lane real slow due to no more hurry - driving the actual speed limit or within 5 mph. mpg is up from 45 mpg to 55 mpg, but the tailgators in the right lane may be worse than those in the left! |

Replying to: elias (Mar 19, 2009 12:50 pm) Indeed by default and posted and printed LAW the FAR right lane is the ONLY lane not required to move out of the way of oncoming/overtaking vehicles. (keep right except to pass) You are perfectly within your rights to be a RLC' er (right lane camper) !!!! STAY the COURSE !! On a more serious note as you probably would agree, as the far right lane has become or has BEEN the DEFACTO fast lane- often times I go to the slow left of the right lane to let them go by.
