Default Re: What do you drive?

My car - 2004 VW TDI Jetta. Just took it in for it's 140K maintenance. Love the car; got the leather interior (black on black - really nice) and with my ~65 mile daily commute, the 40+ MPG of the little turbo diesel just rocks. It really excels on the highway with the huge low end torque the diesel has. AC on, cruse set @ 75...and I get 45+ on the freeway. For the win...

Wife's rig - 2006 BMW X3 3.0L. Great car, fun to drive....she puts very few miles on it so it's petrol thirst isn't a big issue....
