Oy, John, John, John... have you checked TDI resale values?  Did you know that VW dealers don't discount new TDI models because they don't have to?  They don't make enough of them!  My TDI Beetle is worth much more than any comparable gasser Beetle, and with gas mileage like 45 MPG in Atlanta traffic and plenty of pep to boot are you surprised?

their were very few auto diesels, of any type, sold in the US. The only
one that fits is a VW. They never sold well in the US.
