bmwloco commented on 1987 Subaru Justy

"A 1988 Subaru Justy 4x4 was the first and only car I ever paid retail for in my entire life. I bought it when my VW Thing's windshield wiper motor fell off and fouled my pants - just before flying from Vermont to Seattle on business. The Justy served me well for 100,000 miles."

bmwloco commented on 2009 Volkswagen Jetta TDI Announced As 2009 Green Car Of The Year

"Uh, $1300 tax break (see www.vw.com) If you drive a TDI Jetta reasonably, as in 1) don't tear off at stop lights 2) use cruise control 3) stay light on the throtle, you'll get better than 50 mpg. It's simple really, but most drivers are too busy talking on the phone or doing anything but driving. You can, however, drive it like a hooligan and have a good time."
