...and a few days ago i was inspired by Sayyad's thread:

i can only wish that i had had the foresight to look for a tdi when i was jetta shopping, but mine's the same body, and it sounds like i have his same mindset of not being hung up on what our paint job looks like. again opting for the (slightly) less noticeable clear packaging tape, TheJetta now has wheel skirts. this weekend i'm driving to duluth, about 300 miles round trip, and i'd really like to see 40mpg. my record so far is just under 37mpg from fargo to the twin cities, about 250 miles one way. that was before any modding.
