My Take: Three years ago, it used to hurt every time you had to gas up a Touareg …with today’s gas prices, I think it pretty much kills family budgets, ruins vacation plans and makes grown men cry. So what is the consolidation price? Ultra-low MF for those looking to lease one of this gas-thirsty urban family haulers. Doesn’t seem to help all that much since the residual values are terrible.
