What are the best car models for hilly terrain?

Answer

Try the VW Jetta TDI model 2000 through 2004. This is a computer controlled Turbo Diesel with Intercooler European solid build sedan. 40 MPG for me. Max torque at the low end. Unstoppable going up hills. Doesnt bog down at all, and you dont need a "running start" before going uphill. The turbo sucks in as much air as required. I typically go up big interstate hills at 80 mph daily on the way to work, VW will have PASSAT TDI in SPRING SUMMER 2004. This is a bigger sedan that I think you might like more than the smaller sedan Jetta.

Models 2002-2004 have an 80-85K timing belt change interval 2000-2001 are good by they want you to chane 45K miles. They redesigned the pulleys/belts on the newer models.
