Turned the corner and things are going back together. Timing shows correct after I verified it twice to make sure. Should be good for another 80,000. Little diesels are kinda nice for the most part especially on mileage.

Brenda’s Passat TDI (CKRA) is a solid 40mpg regardless of driving city or interstate.

And that is computed by hand.

It’s a good beater car.

Depending on what route I take to work my Jetta (ALH, 5 speed, 254,xxx miles) will vary from 47.5 to 49. Trip to KC will be 47.5. This is in the Beetle my oldest drives(BEW, DSG automatic, 230,xxx miles) so 42.5 almost all the time.

I can get mid 36 on the highway in my 13 2.5 Jetta 5spd. I looked at a few diesels but something about -20 and trying to leave work popped in my head.

I was in Lowe's yesterday wasting time. I was looking at the Husqy chainsaws. They had a 545 pro model, 460, 450, etc. A guy on the aisle says (unsolicited I might add), "Excuse me sir, are you looking to buy a chainsaw. I bought 4 of those Husqvarnas in the past 3 years and they are horrible; worst saws I have ever owned. This saw over here is the best saw I have ever owned. It cuts circles around those Husqy's your looking at." He was pointing to a Craftsman. I looked at him like he was an idiot and said, "I am not looking to buy but I will take your words under advisement if I do." He rambled on; I walked off so I didn't have to hear him talk anymore.

Those people make me laugh.
Right in their faces.
