Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Diesel Cars
I'm getting killed at the pump and would like to keep millage low on my truck. So what are some are some of the better diesel cars out there. Or cheap cars good on gas.
Best Diesel Car: VW TDi

Yup, hard to beat those VW TDis. Great cars.
I'm planning on picking up a second vehicle as well for the same reason, but I'm just going to go with a Honda Civic

That's just, like, your opinion, man... I would say the BMW 330d is pretty darn awesome- that 2.0L N37 D30 is pretty powerful and fuel efficient.

Sip a little more of the BMW cool-aid there Ronin.
The main difference is the TDI I am selling right now has 90 HP, while the 330d has over 200. But you can't get anything but an E9x with the diesel here in the states. Too expensive in my book.Sip a little more of the BMW cool-aid there Ronin.
OP, hope you don't want too much in the way of fuel economy, the TDI I have for sale is only getting about 51+ on the freeway with the AC blasting. Very bad I tell you...
ETA: Just wanted to add that I can put my little diesel car on cruise control at 65 mph and head up I70 and it just pulls with no problems.

Recently became a fan of the new Jetta TDi. I was really surprised how much that car gets up and goes.

I really really really want to find a 330i with a blown engine and ship a diesel engine from Europe and swap it out. 2006 330d, fuck yeah!That's just, like, your opinion, man... I would say the BMW 330d is pretty darn awesome- that 2.0L N37 D30 is pretty powerful and fuel efficient.

I think Gunner's looking for something affordable.That's just, like, your opinion, man... I would say the BMW 330d is pretty darn awesome- that 2.0L N37 D30 is pretty powerful and fuel efficient.
Old Merc SDs and TDs are nice too (I think a cherry W123 300TD would be an awesome grocery getter ... here's one on CL but they can't make up their mind on the price http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/3004330265.html ).
