I'm getting for $26700 out the door w/o navigation, everything else is included, moonroof, alloy 17" wheels? Do you guys think it will be a good deal or it can be a better? I'm thinking to buy from sacramento, CA. Any feedback will be appreciated?

All, I have a LONG commute (126 miles roundtrip per day.. reverse commute in Chicago on 355/I80/I65S from Naperville to Merrillville, IN takes an 1hr 5 mins each way per day). I have tried out a number of cars and while I enjoy the TDI's feel and great gas mileage will the seats be comfortable enough and will it be reliable enough to handle nearly 30,000 miles per year in Chicago? The Acura handled very nice, smooth acceleration.. but only gets 29 mpg and requires premium fuel. It's obviously much more expensive (about 5k difference OTD after my trade-in). If VW had great reliability the Jetta TDI would probably get the nod... I'm just not sure with all those miles I might pay more for the Jetta with all the maintenance costs in the long-run. I looked at the Civic and the seats were too uncomfortable. So for those who have long commutes in their TDIs... how are the seats? how is it for a long-commuter car? Thanks, Kris Arthur

Replying to: karthur1 (Jun 27, 2009 8:17 pm) I have commuted bostonorlando many times with TDI, and bostoncalifornia twice. Most recently with 06 jetta TDI. The seats are good for long commutes, but there are cars with better seats, probably all for significantly more $. Probably the VW/optional package-2/lumbar seats better for such, however those are optioned in the current models (the 09/010 do share much with the 06). I've never ridden in acura anything for long commutes, so can't compare directly to TSX, only to early-1990s honda civics... 06 jetta tdi seats are WAY better than the early 1990s civic-seats, probably no surprise there. sincerely, Lancelot |
