There’s no doubting the Tacoma’s versatility. Unfortunately, it still has a price that can start just over $16,000 and come close to $30,000.

The ride is soft and the handling so-so. The Jetta provides performance similar to its oatmeal exterior: Nothing worth tasting. Even cutting through the curvy roads around California, the Jetta never screamed “go faster”; instead, it whined, “I hate hills”.

The 2011 Volkswagen Touareg TDI may be the best way to get Americans into diesels. It combines a big SUV with good fuel economy like few other vehicles, while maintaining its European sophistication.
