I recently bought a brand new jetta. I averaged 40mpg of the first few tanks driving like a maniac. Now I'm hype emailing getting between 54 and 58.2 mpg on 40mile trips. I'd love to get to my goal of 60 and do think the car sits a little high, but is it worth lowering? Should mileage improve? Is it worth a rougher ride possible undercarriage damage and the pain of getting in and out. I love the car but I must say it is NOT. Fun getting in or out.
