My Introduction
Thought this thread might be appropriate for my introduction to the forum:
___Hello ... I drive a diesel (biodiesel) ... but am an advocate for most alternatives including the rapidly improving hybrid technology.
On the subject of this comparison article, to many of these reviews seem to get a few things wrong. One of the irritations in particular is that they compare the Passat and Mercedes CDI to the Hybrids and gas MiniCooper? Why not the NB, Jetta or Golf TDI? If we're talking real world highway driving, these comfortable small cars are hard to beat for comfort and economy. Now for urban driving and commuting ... my hats off to the hybrids.
I'll look forward to the day when I can fill my diesel/hybrid tank with clean, renewable, domestic biodiesel. BTW ... great site, I'm looking forward to learning a bit more about hybrids.
