“25 MPG” what a joke….well, I guess some of you are correct – fashion over function – indeed… I do love VW’s but as a single man (even with a dog) an SUV is really not justified. I think the Prius is cute and a good option. But our car is our choice, especially when we are able to choose responsibly – so all the best to you Trent and your choice.

I agree with Julie – 25 MPG city is really good considering most vehicles of that syle (cross over SUV, or Cute ute’s) only get like 20 MPG city!!! Also, The VW is so PIMP! love your car… wish i had one just like it… but you should still get rims

25 mpg IS good, especially if your only other choice is a fugly-ass Kia or Prius. Until they make a good-looking car that runs on something renewable, I think Trent is doing just fine with what he’s chosen.

Julie. You poor girl. You’ve been led to believe that 25 MPG is good. Oil is finite, my friend.

Congrats on the new vehicle. Although I think it would’ve been setting a better example had you gotten a hybrid or something more environmentally friendly. Given that you have a following, you could’ve influenced people to a better choice.

Even with all your joy over your new VW, I still can’t see myself ever giving up my Beetle…98 model, no more A/C, classic VW electrical issues, with the check engine light glowing in the night…but it LOOKS awesome! I’ll never own another model!!!

And I, too, am a former Detroiter! I’ve enjoyed your blog for years only recently beginning to comment, and before your move to CA, loved to see where you went bc it usually brought back some memories for me.

You make me happy. I’m so glad you were able to enjoy such a great night with your friend Mike. Your friendship is just like the friendship I have with all my friends.

You guys are idiots for calling the Tiguan a gas guzzler. It gets 25 MPG! And it’s not huge. Can’t you see the picture of him standing next to it?! He’s taller than the car! Morons…

Trent, I love your car! It’s roomy yet still sporty and quite fuel efficient! Keep us updated on how you like it. I’m thinking of getting one for my next car.

Love your car. I am in the market for a new one. I live in Colorado so it will most likely be a crossover of some kind. I have been looking at the Honda CR-V, but now I kinda like your Volkswagon. I have never heard of that model, and I thought I looked at every crossover available at the auto show.

WOW… This is so random, but I have been reading your blog forever now, and I just recognized Mike in your picture- he’s totally Blair Herter’s friend (lawyer too I think?) and I lived in Santa Monica and my roomie and I always hung out with them.

SMALL WORLD!!

Yeah – not a big fan of the gas guzzlers, especially when all of LA is paved (there’s hardly a need for 4WD!) and you do so much flying anyway. Not impressed, but I’m glad you like it. Enjoy Europe (and check out their sexy small cars ;)

Love the new VW — Wunderbar! Ewige Blumenkraft!

Sunfires and Batmobiles are also durable options in a Detroit pinch ;->

Bon voyage, man! Shake hands with Obama for me if you run across him in your European travels . . .
