I recall a friend having a diesel Rabbit with a 5-speed back in the late '70's and he got around 55-60 MPG. Sure, it had pretty bad acceleration & power, but who cares at that sort of mileage? I agree with the notion of battery replacement with hybrids. No one ever talks about that. I'm curious what does this have to do with a Chrysler newsgroup?
