Economy with a diesel??? Not sure this statement is accurate with diesel fuel at $2.41 a gallon?

I will take a gas engine any day over a diesel for performance. Just an observation...

Cheers!
You would be surprised at how much economy I do get in my diesel Jetta.

When I drive it like I stole it and you are in pursuit I get 42-44mpg at 80-85 mph. and in town I get 33-35mpg.

If I'm trying to get fuel mileage I slow down a bit and I get 47-49mpg, and 36-38mpg.

I'll also put a smile on your face when you see how really quick this little 90 horse motor is.
