Hi Steve, Dalton, et al,

I traded my very much loved '04 R32 on an '09 Jetta TDI Sportwagen,  
and I've gotta say I've been amazed at how much I like it,  I haven't  
had it over 80, and I've noticed that it seems to be running out of  
breath as it gets there, but below that it's amazing.  I wish it had  
some form of AWD, even the Haldex system that the R had, because it  
has so much torque that you have to be careful not to spin the front  
wheels when the road is wet (not that it's difficult to do so in the  
dry, but in the wet it annoys me.)  All cars should be so bothersome,  
eh?

Bart
