Let the banishment begin........
was gas the deciding factor between a 1.8T and a TDI? How well does that average out with the price of diesel, isn't it slightly more expensive than gasoline?

As for the mileage, it is slightly cheaper than the 2.0 and much cheaper than the 1.8t
Diesel 1.80 gallon
Regular 1.60 gallon
Premium 1.80 gallon
Diesel epa of 49mpg, at 1.80 gallon gives 27.2 miles/dollar
2.0 epa of 31mpg, at 1.60 gallon gives 19.4 miles/dollar
1.8t epa of 31mpg at 1.80 gives 17.2 miles/dollar
Granted those are rough gas prices and I've seen more of a fluctuation in diesel than gas. As long as it stays less than or = premium i'll be fine. And plus at 49 mpg and 15 gallon tank, i'll have 735 miles to find a station with cheap diesel.

Actually no, the dealership threw it in as part of my hard bargaining skills.
