Tim,

You can draw your own conclusions from all the replys, but I would suggest for best fuel economy, getting a VW with a diesal engine. Just make sure that before you buy that you their is a after market hitch for it that can be installed.

I know that my TDI Jetta is great with fuel, and there is plenty of power for towing. I can still hold my own off the line even with the cat behind me.

I should also let you know that mine is a 5 speed manuel, so I control the shift points... I just love manuel transmissions
