[Vwdiesel] Polo TDI

Here in central Iowa.. (Des Moines) in my parking lot there are on average a
half a dozen TDI's and two A1 Rabbits.  The parking lot holds about 300
cars. Could be a Midwest thing.  We've got Biodiesel plants sprouting in our
soybean fields.

FWIW there is at least one lowride Caddy with a TDI upgrade tooling around.
They lowered it to normal A1 height..or lower, added the GTI snowflake rims,
and interior, leaded in the door handles (suspect bondo) and added a little
hood over the windshield.  Pretty cool looking truck.  I'd love to know who
did it.

  I have to admit I see very few older VW's around anymore.
:-(  Recently though I've started seeing an occasional Rabbit 
or Dasher, which is nice.  :-)  Most of the cars here lean 
heavily toward pickups and SUV's but then, being a farming 
area, it always has.
  I get tired of the "you must feel guilty about the fuel you 
burn" mantra we hear in the media every day.  Most of the 
oil consumed in this country is NOT by cars driven daily.  
Trucks, busses, planes and products made from oil FAR 
outweigh motoring public's oil use many times over.
