I do appreciate the information, just to be clear. At the risk of
giving out too much information again, I really CAN'T afford high-end
Toyotas, at least not like you might be thinking. The Tundra is my
first new car ever, and I had to sell my beloved Jeep and Volvo to get
it, and the Land Cruiser is a '95... great SUV, but not the $60k
vehicle you might have been thinking about! Paid $13.5k for it, gas
was $1.89 a gallon, life was good! Now, at $3.05 and climbing, the
Cruiser is killing me and I am looking for some kind of very high MPG
vehicle. The biodiesel is a big plus and trust me, I WILL be using it.
As far as my wife, well, she's a real sweetie and I'm not worried
about the kinds of things you have had trouble with. However, the
stuff you are mentioning about how unreliable they are is truly
frightening and I thank you for you post. I'm gathering data here.
Your post will count as a strong vote against the Jetta TDI. I've had
other people, here and elsewhere, tell me they are great cars that
don't really have too many problems. At this point, I'm still trying
to find "the truth". So, thank you.

Jeff. Dude-man. As long as your wife can fit in the VW, you are good
to go. Just like the Taco bell commercial, "Good to go". LOL!!!!
Remember, lots of vids for us to see the results!!!
The Dudesons ROCK!!!!!
