2003 Volkswagen Jetta TDI: Great car but not user friendly

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tailwinds - This car is awesome to drive. I've had it a year and a half (since new). The mileage is great, however I've never seen the 60 mpg that others talk about. I put a roof pod on during the first week of purchase and I'm sure that has had a major impact on my...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author grassyknoll - We needed a new car. We both know that gas prices are only going up. Hybrids are fairly a new thing, and they run in the small size. Hybrids also are only designed for cities, as their efficiency decreases on the highway. Plus, I never seem to hear...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author apass - I’ve had this car for over a year now, and my conclusion: I shouldn’t have bought a car at all. Chances are if you were seriously considering buying this car, you’d be better off living without a car. Yes, I average 65 mpg cruising on the...
