my sister is on their second tdi jetta wagon only because they got some water damage from a leaking sun roof after 5+ years of fairly trouble free driving. they got a great trade in value compared to having to do a carpet and other interior replacement. the new one isnt quite as good milage wise but they can still do the 400+ mile trip to my parents on a little over 1/2 tank of fuel.

they never got less than 40mpg on the old one and easily were getting close to 60mpg on a couple of long road trips. gass up in the morning and you are good to go for the day. pitstops consisted of food and bathroom use. not a bad snow car for denver to Santa Fe several times a year.
