Mike M said: (quoted from post at 04:20:04 10/29/08) Here in the USA for some odd reasons ? we aren't allowed to have those small high MPG pickups.
You say that as a joke, but there must be some truth to it.
In 1986 I bought a VW gulf diesel from a buddy that had brought it back (Missouri) from Germany. It got 50 mpg driving me on country roads back and forth to work and around 60 mpg on the highway.
I have a VW Passat wagon with a 2.0 5sp that I between 25 and 30 mpg when I am pushing it along between 90 and 110 mph and almost 40 mpg when I can force myself to drive 60 mph.
There's got to be a difference between European spec vehicles and American specs, I'm just not smart enough to know what it is. I buy my VW parts through rock auto, so it's the same vehicle that was sold in America.
