Any chances of a diesel engine appearing in the thing in the US late 
next year?
I wish I still had the old Rabbit diesel I had 15+ years ago, that was 
one great little car ( the 60 mpg wasn't hard to live with either :-)

What happened to the old 1974 240D and the 1987 300TD?  How cool to have a 
300Dt with such low mileage on it.

Yup.  Also, the VW Rabbit Pickup was the VW Caddy elsewhere, and the VW
Dasher was the Audi Fox. The VW Fox was something else, too, but I don't
remember what.

Been busy...work, fam, tons of crap around the house. I look at the list daily,
