Default Road Trip - TT or TDI ??

Heading to Breckenridge, CO this Friday from Chicago.

Got a new Jetta TDI that has XM and gets 50mpg on the highway.

TT gets 30mpg, and has complete audio/video/Nav/ipod setup and also V1 and Lidatek Laser. But, also gets a CEL from time to time and I will travel with 2 coilpacks, one MAF, and one DV extra.

I want to take the TT, wifey wants to take the Jetta TDI.

Decision, decisions, decision.

Default Toss a coin - it would make more financial sense to take the TDi, but the

TT would get there faster and with more style....LOL

Default Here's another one....let the wifey drive the TDi, and you drive the TT. Tell

her to follow you, and see if she can keep up....LOL

Default Take the TDI - Use the money you saved in gas to buy another mod for the TT

as an "I'm sorry for not taking you gift" The TT will instantly forgive you :-P ...Besides how exciting is driving through Kansas anyways?
