A good all around family fun vehicleSource: MSN Autos...It's about 3" too short for that. Also, the tonneau cover could be much better designed. It shouldn't leak as much as it does. The 8 way power drivers' seat is great, however it should be possible to have 4 memory buttons to program different drivers' seat positions so it doesn't have to be a chore. And the UGLY, HUGE interior door handles. UGH! Last but not least... GAS MILEAGE! They advertise 16-20 mpg... Try 14 to 15.3 tops. I'm not impressed. I didn't expect great mileage. It is a truck, after all. But I did expect to be in range. Overall: Overall, a great vehicle. About $5,000 too... |

My 2003 VW GolfSource: Cars.com...The seats could be longer and tilt more but I can't complain. They are still the best seats I have tried so far in the compact arena. It sounds great, looks great and handles great, and has plenty of power without the straining lawnmower engine noise of some other gas saver compacts. It is really fun to drive and you almost feel like your in a porsche like cockpit. At least I do. After only 2 months with this car I am now a VW fan. It is a classy little car and as a bonus the seats fold down, or you can remove them and have lots of cargo space. A porsche with cargo space. Gotta love it."... |

Buy a diesel! Then convert it to HHO hybSource: Edmunds...Awesome car made better with HHO system. I wouldn't bother with a VW that's not diesel, why would you? 40-50 mpg race car! How can you get any better?... |
