I have a Jetta TDI.
Never again.
Apart from the lies about emissions...
Diesel is great for highway driving, and has good torque at certain RPMs. But it's shitty for stop-and-go driving. The fuel economy is only good when you're doing steady highway speeds.
I also have a 30 horsepower utility tractor for my hobby farm. It belches nice clouds of black smoke when I start it and lifts hundreds of pounds. I like diesel in that machine, but not in my car.
