[Vwdiesel] TDI futures

[Shalyn Shourds]

I was at the dealer today trying to find some parts which, after hearing 
their prices, I will make on my own from silly putty.  I was walking 
around the showroom looking at all the shiny toys and wonderng what they 
were selling for these days for a suprising number of minutes and no one 
walked up to me.  I got an, "I have no idea" from a receptionist drone.  
I think all the sales staff was involved in a canasta game or 
something.  I finally cornered one of them and he told me that they will 
be not importing TDI's for a bout a year and a half due to emissions 
regs.  Anyone heard about that?  It's always hard to tell from a 
salesman--the sound of their voices gets muffled as it passes throught 
the lower abdomen.  He didn't even ask me if I wanted to look at one.  I 
would think that that's the kind of trade practice that would tank a 
dealership real quick, but I guess maybe I'm just that much smarter and 
better-looking. 

In any event, if that's true, I guess I'll have to buy TDI futures now 
and sell high later.
