looks like the Diesel Tracker is back up.....that is cool and Accurate from what I can tell
Boy I'll sound like an old lady again, but that Diesel Tracker tells me that the nearest Diesel is 22 miles south of where I work (in a fairly large town) when it's about 2.5 miles away... if I put in my work Zip... and almost 50 miles from where I live (where the nearest Diesel is actually now about 8 miles away, RIP closed BP station that had
premier that was 2.5 miles away..)
I guess clean Diesel isn't for us flyover state people after all
or at least that is what it will seem like to a "newbie" looking at that site...
I find it amusing that pre-2009 TDI's are not eligible for the mileage game.. I guess the fact 2003's (and probably my 2006 PD) will out MPG a 2009 is not good marketing either.
My last post complained about Diesel being more expensive than gas.. and my complaining fixed that.. I wonder what I'll fix this time...
I think the $43K Toureg 2 diesel is cool but where's the $28K diesel Routan that I need for my 6 person family? Might get me into another VW. I'm on the fence for another TDI Jetta/Golf in about five years when I'll need it... If I can find time or a good, close, independent mechanic I'd do it again... but the VW service at the dealers really kill the deal....
