Damn VW

What is wrong with VW? Why has it taken them 3 years and counting to get their TDI back int he US marketplace? I'm set to replace my 97 Subaru Legacy in the next year or so and hope to have the TDI Tiguan available for purchase. It's the only vehicle I know of even close to the specs i'm looking for. >30MPG, AWD, ground clearance(only needed occasionally). It's amazing i can't find 3 thing i want all in the same car.....Maybe i should go get an old AMC Eagle and toss a TDI engine under the hood. What about those kids in Philly who put together a hybrid car with a TDI and got 50mpg and 4sec 0-60! Why can't some car maker with tons of engineers and resources do this? Seems like the big manufacturers are out of touch with the American public or maybe it's just me!
