Very long time lurker at SA, and being in the market to get myself a TDI this coming summer, figured I would take the plunge and post in this thread, with some requests for advice! If I am looking to get a TDI Golf (ideal) or Jetta in the $6000-$8000 range, approximately what sorts of mileage should I look for to find a good deal? Any suggestions for best venues to get a deal on diesel in the US? Additionally, have heard claims that automatic transmissions are better for mileage on a TDI, because the additional heat output from the transmission is a more certain mileage improver than shifting carefully in a manual. Thoughts on this? Also, someone mentioned using a Golf for towing motorcycles; any TDI Jetta folks with positive towing experiences? Assuming this car eventually does get purchased, perhaps a thread will be created about the long drive (am leaning towards purchasing in North Carolina, due to lower costs and rust-free cars from no winters, to get up north to Ohio). Possibly even with photos. Yes/no?
