I don't know which planet you live on. The new 2009 Jetta TDI weight 600 pounds more than my 1999 Jetta TDI, and it also have 50 more hp. Yet it still returns over 50 mpg on the highway. That's far from inefficient if you ask me.
As far as the economics of it are concerned, you really need to show me your math cause your conclusion does not make sense to me.
