I am searching for a diesel as my next car to daily drive and boy they sure have an inflated value.

I am pretty much looking at Mercedes or VW diesels below $5,000. 5-speed is a plus, but not required. There are SOME out there, but not a lot of selection.

Yeah but those are all pretty much what I am looking for.

Don't they get worse gas mileage on short trips?

Drove a 2011 TDI Jetta today, really nice car I can't afford because I don't have good credit. Edit: 2011 with a 2-year 24,000 warranty. It had something like 50,000 miles. Black with manual transmission. $1,000 down, $350/mo. ultimateforce fucked around with this message at 01:11 on Mar 30, 2013 |

It's kind of awesome knowing that if I ever decide to sell mine it'll go almost instantly at some ludicrous price drat it, that is exactly what I want to buy, but I know I can't afford new with my credit the way it is. The Jettas are just too big for me. Edit: http://www.aristocratvw.com/VehicleDetails/certified-2011-Volkswagen-Golf-2dr_HB_Man_TDI-Sanford-FL/1959573363 Well drat, there you go.

I got screwed over by a shady student loan consolidation company. Turns out I was paying them, but they weren't paying the loan off. Good luck proving that in court after they shut down operations and disappear!
