I used to drive a VW Golf TDI. So did my brother. My parents both drive Jetta TDIs. My cousin drives a Jetta TDI and a Mercedes 300SD. We also have two diesel tractors, two diesel vans (a Chevy and a Mercedes), and a motorhome. Oh, and one of my best friends drives a Jetta TDI, too. I used to drive the sprinter van 750 miles in one day, three times every month... not to mention local driving. My brother and I both put about 80 miles a day on our cars. My mom drives about that much, too.

We don't use nearly as much diesel these days. I'm thinking about selling the biodiesel setup. Anyone interested?

I won't be winning any hypermiling contests this weekend... I'll be towing the camper over to Maryland's eastern shore for some good ol' camping! Me, wife, baby, dog, and all our stuff... not to mention the camper itself. I'm going to take it easy and see if I can get 25 MPG (in the display, at least).
