[Vwdiesel] Aloha from Hawaii, was "how many of you froze up?"

[jetta at golden.net]

After all the talk of winter freeze, I send greetings from Honolulu.  Not many
diesel cars here in Hawaii.  The only one I've seen here so far was a '96
or '97 Passat TDI in a grocery store parking lot.  Diesel is $1.999 per gallon
here, compared to $1.75 for regular gas, so I can see why not many people would
buy a diesel here.  Plus, you really can't drive that far, since it's an
island.  Weather's nice here, though.  I went from chipping ice off my driveway
with a garden spade on Saturday, to frying myself on the beach in Waikiki
yesterday.  The wonders of air travel!  Well, the wife and I are off to explore
the island in our exciting Chev Prizm rental (ugh!)  I'm suffering from diesel
withdrawal.
Stay warm, everyone.
