[Vwdiesel] 89 Jetta high mileage

[Bryan Belman]

I would not be annoyed, I would just pass him and wave, but I would be driving a 
diesel and he would wave back, we are all diesel folks.

Ark, what has gotten into you lately?  This is a small group of guys with lots 
of experience and time behind all kinds of tools, parts. instruments, presses 
and VW diesels.
Some have better tools then others, some have better experience then others but 
we all learn from one another most every day and don't ever insult one another 
in the more then 10-15 years I have been following these guys.
Hagar was the exception to this rule when he was around, I think he has gone to 
VW heaven some years ago.  Please to not become another Hagar, your are a good 
man and I try to stick up for you.

  I think that was at something like 35mpg max and after his "airborne 
in the Spruce Goose" tale, probably downhill a lot of the way!  ;-)  
Maybe imperial as well.
  Seemed like Nate claimed about the highest mpg but he admitted that 
most people would be annoyed to be stuck behind him.  Accelerated 
REALLY slowly and only used the brakes to hold the car after rolling to 
a stop at lights type of stuff.
