Unhappy I Think It's Time To Park The Diesel

Im gonna have to park the diesel an not use it to get to work. Save it for the weekends. Im in the market now for a later 90's jetta to use for work. Diesel prices are not even funny. Its just flat out gouging.

Not me. I'm driving her till the day she dies.

Well, come to think of it, she is kind of dead right now. But not for long.

Special Thanks to Lucas (L&N) for overnighting the VP-44 to the shop. My girl should be on the rampage this afternoon..

Just waiting for the mornings to warm up a bit more...and then I'll be dropping from 4 wheels to two.

And it can't be gouging....Congress did an investigation remember. They would have found and fixed the problem if there was one. Their there to protect us....remember
