<font face="Arial, Helvetica">Greetings Listees,<br><br>
As you probably remember, we just finished a tiico install in our westy
and are very happy with it.<br><br>
We just added the newest baby to the family, a charcoal grey 2003 TDI
Beetle GLS, and the bioDiesel get's delivered tomorrow. We just sold off
our Prius, as we were still having to put gasoline in it. The TDI is
getting 50mpg, with a 700 mile range per tank.We're so excited to be able
to be using an alternative fuel source, so as not to perpetuate or
participate in the oiligarchy that runs our country. The torque is
tremendous, and they will run B100 biodiesel without any mods.<br><br>
Luckily we live close to a very progressive area to get our BioDiesel for
$2.53 a gallon. Eugene. <br><br>
Now, everyone is asking, why didn't you put a TDI in the westy? Damn! I
didn't know how! I remember seeing Sunny had a TDI in that fine yellow
syncro. Anyone else done a TDI conversion yet? Wasn't there someone
working on a kit?<br><br>
