    Buy a car that gets more than double the mpg' s of the truck.

    Jetta TDI 5-speed Brm

    This one didn't have all the emissions equipment as the 2013 I sold back to vw in February.

    It's got 165k miles and I gave 4000 for it. Talk about a deal.

    Admin feel free to lock or move thread. Sorry I just excited :jerkoff:

    Btw. I love my 3rd Gen.

    This car presented itself and I couldn't say no.

    My brother thought he was funny when he passed me. Lol

    Well, I did one better. Zero miles, infinite MPG, costing only about 25% more than your Jetta. :thumbsup:

    If I were to buy another car, it would probably be a Jetta. I miss the Jettas I had in my youth. How do you like the interior?

    This one being the BRM has real leather in it, the one my buddy had with the common rail had leatherette (think I spelled that right) and well it's smooth as any other vw I've been in. The road noise can be a little loud as you know if you've owned one of these style cars. All in all for what I paid I'm happy.
