Hi, I just joined this forum. Two weeks aga I bought a '00 Jetta GLS TDI off Ebay, flew to Pensacola, FL, drove it back to Indianapolis,IN. I drove 700 miles before the low fuel light came on and stopped for fuel at 710 miles. I averaged 53.25 MPG on the trip. The ride is very comfortable and was just great on the trip home. I now have 585 miles on this tank, just driving back and forth to work and round about and still am not quite down to the 1/8th mark on the gauge. It has exceeded all my expectations. What an impressive vehicle. Why did I wait so long to buy one? Darrell
