Good advice - this is exactly why I am looking for a nice Diesel Rabbit,
Golf, or Jetta.  Though I do love the jealous stares I get when I have the
top up and I'm making grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup for lunch in
the parking lot with the tunes going...  :-)  (Doesn't happen often enough,
