Hi Rich, You might want to go read the VW tDI forums as there's alot of good info there. I read it alot as these guys are more concerened about fuel mileage than any other website that I've found. From whats been said over the past couple years the diesel fuel mileage has dropped about 10mpg from where it was. There is a guy that talks there that holds the NE ralley fuel mileage contest with a 2001 VW TDI at 88mpg. No special mods on the engine as that's not allowed but it's his driving style and rock hard tires(60psi) that wins. There's several gassers that get in the mid to high 30mpg range for alot less money than the VW TDI. I bought a small gasser Chevy that gets 35mpg easy so it was hard for me to choose a gasser vs a diesel as I really like diesels but I'm not a fool. T_Bone
