Also: For about the same price you could have had a slightly-used but certified Mercedes E320 CDI. :P

Not happy about VW after the TDI Golf I was in conked out of the middle of nowhere in West Texas. In the height of the summer. Had to walk out to get a cell signal and shelter. That’s how I know about their idiot cooler design.

Americans like big and roomy cars. Screw the gas mileage. Versatility and comfort come first for families. The SUV remains king of the road no matter how much liberals demonize it.

Seriously, FR needs to hire a web developer who can detect when a poster hits the "Submit" button before screen refresh and prevent duplicate posts.

Take up a special collection. I'll donate.
