  1. 37/50 mpg, decent power and no batteries or computers!

  2. Ha that’s pretty funny. Jurca should race TDI cup again next year, he almost won it the first season.

  3. A great tip for hwy mileage. Set your cruise control at 58 miles per hour. This may seem a little slow but when you figure all the other traffic is accelerating and decelerating multiple times an hour and you will never have to do either. I have tested this many times. I always get over 46 mpg and maybe take about 1/2 hour longer to get to the destination after an all day trip. With the normal 70 MPH highway speed limit you are ok at 58 and you will never have to touch either the accelerator or brakes.
