I am new to VW because of the Toyota Truck frame recall. I am really gonna miss the ole girl. She had 215,000 miles on her and still as dependable as day one, but the frame was gone, literally. I can't complain, since I paid $6000 for her two years ago from a buddy of mine, put about 40,000 miles on her, and Toyota bought her off me for $11,250. I put that money on the 2005.5 Jetta that is deffinatley easing my pain. I am going to miss having the truck, but I am truley warming up to the Jetta ( the heated seats help in that category) What a sweet ride. I am glad I found this forum. I was on another VW forum and I had asked a couple questions and had a couple hundered views, but no replies, WTF? I am familiar with others like the BMW motorcycle forums and know if you get the right one it can be an invaluble resource.
