I think VW TDIs are great cars. My friend routinely got 50 MPG with his. What pushed me to the Prius was that after suffering the "reliability" of European cars, I wanted at least one car in the family to be a Toyota. Not wanting to look for a diesel pump was a secondary reason. I have to admit I have no interest in mooching used french fry oil and doing the whole bio-diesel thing.
