[Vwdiesel] mileage

[Tad]

People say that it's dangerous but I'm not so sure.  With my TDI anyway, I
can stop about 100 times faster than a truck/bus, so as long as I am far
enough back to hit the brakes before I hit the truck, what's the problem?
 True that you can't see what's going on up the road, but that's also true
when you're following at a safer distance.  Just pay attention to the
truck's brake lights...
