ive met a bunch of folks over the years who were diesel freaks..  whether it
be the new TDI's, or the older turbo diesels of the 80's, i know quite a few
people who are into diesels..  i know a local guy who has his yard filled with
A1/A2 golf/jetta diesels, turbo diesels, and a 81 diesel vanagon.. all he
drives are vw diesels..he is a total diesel freak.. and he just recently acquired
a '98 new beetle tdi..    so anyway i think there is a big diesel following
out there, they just appeal to a certain type of people.. and the fact that they
can be made to run on grease and lard makes them even more appealing to
some.. :<)      im guessing more new TDI's will be sold this summer as gas prices
keep hiking up...ive seen alot more new vw TDI's on the road lately....

"i'll run free cooking waste oil in my vw's before i pay $2.50 a gallon for
unleaded gasoline" he told me..

to each his own..
