Nice write up! Way to go!

Although I didn't see any TDI guys there, we had fun checking out the Civic Diesel. There is a long thread about it, including some pics at www.CleanMPG.com in this thread. The pics are on posts 1, 11, and 24. It is a beauty and excellent in the power and highway gas mileage categories. City...

Hey guys, I've said it before, your TDIFest was one one of the inspirations for Hybridfest. We couldn't have done it without pioneers like you going before us. So keep those TDIFests going strong! Maybe next year some of the biodiesel contingency from TDIclub will join us at Hybridfest 2007...

Actually, there is going to be a diesel electric hybrid vehcile on display at Hybridfest. It's a Chevy Equinox put together by the UW Hybrid Vehicle Team. Their press release says, I see that someone else started a thread about this diesel electric hybrid on TDIClub already...
