GAS MILEAGE EFFICIENCY - EXCELLENT

I KNOW, I KNOW...strange picture to post, but I figured it would be the only way to prove to you gas mileage efficiency.  or, GOOD gas mileage.  At this point I had the car for two weeks.   When I left Barre with the vehicle it was a full tank, and still two weeks later at 201 miles I haven't had to put gas in it yet, it still has a half a tank of gas!!   Here's the picture to prove it.  Plus, it's 10:30 in the morning and 41 degrees, which was nice on a day early in March.  Yet another great feature in the VW Jetta SE, time, temp, gas gauge and mileage right infront of you so not to take your eyes off the road with a simple glance.

It's the Small Things





After purchasing a shoppe broom to "sweep" the water away from my front door and walkway to prevent flooding inside my home, I noticed another convenient benefit with the Jetta.  The broom was in the trunk, when I opened the trunk to get the broom, that was going to prevent flooding....yea right, I noticed you can  Shut the trunk from the inside of the trunk.  I have a picture here of the inside of the trunk, wheres there's a lip you grab and pull down to shut the trunk, instead of having to reach up high to push down on a dirty or wet trunk. HELLO, BRILLIANT!

Spent the weekend riding the power of the Volkswagon, Jetta.  I have a  name for it already, it's very slick, like a fox.  Little Grey Fox, or Foxy Jetta.  

Saturday Morning I started off with my training sessions for the Triathlon.  First an hour spin class, then an hour in the pool.  Foxy Jetta is very convenient when it comes to carry many bags AND not wanting to set it down in the mudd or dirty asphalt. AND not wanting all your stuff rolling around in the trunk.  I have my gym bag, drapped over my shoulder and its pretty heavy with all my gear for Biking and Swimming, two large water bottles, nutrition for after each session.  Easy Brezzy, click of the trunk open button, the trunk opens, I arrange the plastic velcro cargo box to fit perfectly around my bag, and it sits  nice and snug, and when I shut the Trunk, I don't have to push it from the top of the trunk, there's a lip on the inside of the trunk I can use to pull it down and it shuts. 

Saturday night I went out to dinner at Drunken Noodle in Essex Junction.  Driving along in the Foxy Jetta, The Fox for short.  I said to myself, "Self, what was I thinking.  No reservations, busy Saturday Night, I'm not going to find a place to park, I only have an hour for dinner before the show.  Beauty of Foxy Jetta, it's compact and will fit just about anywhere, and still fits 4 adults very comfortably.  Parking the foxy compact jetta was NOT a problem. With our leftovers from dinner, put the to go goxes in the trunk using the plastic velcro cargo box, I was able to arrange the plastic pieces snug around the food and it didn't spill over the place.

Off to a play with the Essex Community Players.  Another small parking lot, a bit muddy on Saturday Night.  Front Wheel drive pull us through with not problem, again parking was simple!

Then, Sunday Morning, off to breakfast, and found another great  feature in the Foxy Jetta.  The 60/40 split folding seats in the back there's  a pass through with an arm rest and cup holders.  The pass through is perfect for four adults to go skiing I thought to myself.  The ski's can fit in the trunk through the back seat.  Wait until you see the video of us finding THAT!
