		<description>My only concern, regarding the plug-in electric cars, is what will happen to the power-grid during the evening hours when a few million owners plug in?  We already have brown-outs in major cities during maximum air conditioning use.  I will hold my breath when electric cars are added to that mix.

I think, for the time being, we are stuck with petroleum driven vehicles and fuel-cell technology. So, get a bicycle to &quot;drive&quot; on your shorter trips.  Good for the economy (mine), health, great exercise, controlling the waistline, etc.</description>

		<description>We can all learn something from what Al Gore had to say the past few weeks. Unless we become self reliant for our energy requirements, we will never again be an independent democratic nation.



We can start with a fundamental change in our driving habits that is now required.



The Automobile Industry is going to be in the same position as the Airline Industry in the next few months. Unless we get away from gas combustion vehicles, including Hybrids, the automobile industry (as we know it) will die.We need to make drastic moves. America needs to move to ELECTRIC. The vehicles are not as fast, not always as fun to drive, but the move will save Americans money (Billions) and help bring change to our automotive companies. Let&#039;s &quot;Be Green&quot;!!!!!!!!!!!! BG Automotive Group Ltd. has a car that will travel 80-100 miles per charge for $15,995. Finally a car that most Americans can afford. Did you know that 80% of all drivers, drive less than 50 miles per day? This new car will cost an equivalent of $0.20-0.25 cents/gallon (depending on electricity rates in your area). Why send $700 Billion per year to OPEC (now buying up U.S. companies) when we can use this money for our schools, health care, social security for all Americans, etc, etc, etc. We can make the difference if WE change.</description>

		<description>I too also noticed my former VW diesels a 1981 pickup and 1985 Jetta got a lot more gas mileage. THe pickup was a gutless wonder but got 40mpg. The Jetta got between 50-55mpg and had a lot of pickup. I thought with knew technology that mpg would be greater. Especially with the trend of fuel prices. Both cars I sold with about 275,000 miles and were in great shape with original clutches and motors and running smoothly.</description>

		<description>What is the predicted fuel economy for the new Jetta? I have a 2002 Jetta TDI with 152,000 miles on it. I love the vehicle, enjoy driving it, but am considering a trade. Your comments about acceleration are encouraging, but normally that comes with a trade off.</description>
