Fahrvergnügen

Remember the ads from the 80's or 90's which had this little phrase in it?
Do we know what it means?
I have an idea, now in 2008 when gas is over $4.00 per gallon farvegnugen means "you get more than 14 mpg (like in your Ford F150)
it also means "when you move away to college, your mom gets to drive something with working air conditioning"
Frustrated by fuel costs we elected to invest in a commuter car for Kyle. Now he gets to ride with leather, heated seats. Working air con, a 6CD changer, power front seats (adjustable for individual drivers), a moon roof, and every other goodie a good German car could provide. Am I jealous? hell yes. Am I bitter, well . . . maybe just a bit!

Congratulation. Fahrvergnuegen means: driving pleasure. Now it is up to you to give that expression real meaning. Mom
