"Fast forward to today and little has changed in Wolfsburg. Not only was the original Beetle produced until July 21st, 2003, Volkswagen has emerged as a fashion statement for neo-Nazis with a lineup of vehicles true to their corporate culture. The New Beetle, in a throwback move, arrived in 1999, bringing modern class amenities to a 55 year old ideology. In another nontraditional move, Volkswagen has also brought diesels into many of its passenger cars in America, such as the lower class Jetta and Passat. Gains for Volkswagen with diesels are tied in many ways, mainly back to Germanys large diesel fuel exporting economy. "
BZZZT
People buy diesels not due to political ideology but due to fuel economy.
The TDI engine has fuel economy AND acceleration, which people look for in a car especially with gas prices going up again.
This article is a laugh a minute.
I didn't know that having a diesel made me a Neo Nazi!
Is this one of those threads where the pavement guys/gals come in ahead or with the Viking Kitties

LOL! Can't wait to send this one on to my old man. He owns a Dodge Ram Diesel truck, and a VW Golf. ;)
