BTW, what dealer did you get your TDI from?

well, hybrids and electric ARE cleaner, emmision wise...near zero when motor is running...but i can't hear em coming from behind me and it's MY fault? o_O
i went to santamonica VW and they were not talking my language...got picked up by a really nice saleslady from PacificVW...many hours later drove home in a 2011TDI jetta.

waaaay better than the 17-21 i averaged in the pickup

I like some of the pics you guys posted of your kayak on top of the car..
Used to have a 89 geo metro. 45mpg city and about 60mpg on the freeway. Best ever on the freeway was 68mpg. Take that prius owners.
As someone mentioned the salt water.. I guess that would be a a good reason to wash the car more often. Thing is I plan to keep the car for atlist 10 years or longer.. Going to see how much a trailer hitch for the civic would cost.. for now its the job for my VW next time I would take a pic to show the kayak on top ..
