yeah, I need to get cards made up or something inviting people to join the site or atleast look into it, so I can put under wipers when I see them in p-lots and such.
At the top towards the left side is a link to TDI Club cards you can print out for this very purpose. You can also add your contact info to the reverse side if desired.

I'll be there if I'm not a popsicle! The furnace at work has quit 4x in the past 2 weeks, and the water pipes were froze the past 2 days. Gotta walk about a block to use the bathroom in the next building.....:mad:

CoolWht, sent you a pm.

That was a pretty good place. Now if we could only get more people interested than just us 2............ :confused:

Where next month?:D
Yeah - I liked Carrabba's too! :)

Was surprised nobody posted here about wanting to make this one! Of course the weather was kinda bad that week too. Hopefully somebody will join us in March.....

Have a few possibilities in mind for Tuesday March 13th dinner GTG - will post info here on Wednesday, March 7th.

Thanks for switching. I couldn't really make the dinner, drive the 50 minutes back home, pack, drive 2 hr to Chicago and be on a plane @ 6:00 a.m. to New York just to come back that same evening and drive another 2 hrs. back home.

O.K. Who else is coming?????????????????

Oh, yeah. The Peloquin arrived today, so it joins the FSD's, 5th gear and clutch sitting in the corner. :D

I travel between Portage and Elkhart somewhat frequently and have seen another TDI just once, in a parking lot at the University Park Mall. It even had a TDI club license plate!

Hi dieselnewbie,

Well, to spot my TDI you'll have to be on US 31 from South Bend to Berrien Springs, MI as that's it's usual haunt. TDI_Convert can be seen between Plymouth area and Napanee on US 6. In general TDI's are a rare sight in Michiana which does not make much sense as Gurley-Leep VW does sell them and they don't last more than a month on the lot before someone snaps them up!

Any chance you might be able to join us for one of the monthly Michiana dinner GTG's sometime?

My sis lives in Indy though I live in Portland, OR. I"ll be coming out to do a trade with a guy in N. Indiana not this week but next hopefully. Anyone want me to bring them anything if I do come out week of the 18th? Anyone have anything cool? I have a '98 NB TDI.

Depending on when you saw it, it might have been mine. What color was it?

I will see if I can make it. But with the crazy work schedule I have I am not sure if I will be able to. Don't wait for me.

We didn't! You missed some good food. :D

CoolWht:

My sister arrived not 10 minutes after you left. We filled up the bed of her F250, and the trailer still had siding piled over half way up the sides....
It sure did make the trip home easier tho! I wonder just how much that load weighed.............

Where's a good place to get diesel or biodiesel in Mishawaka? I'll be out there on the weekend of the 21st. Road trippin' :D


EDIT.. Sorry, found it in Post 18. My bad! Is it still B2 or is there anything close to B5? Not looking for B100

TDI_Convert would be better at answering what the blend is as it's on his commute. IIRC he said it was B20? I hardly ever get down that way so don't know.

If you will be on 6 between Nappanee and Bremen, Bellman oil has B20 and B100. LMK if you need directions.
