    Some really cool shit
    Quattro?

    Looks like a maintenance nightmare.

    Had a 2004 A4 Quattro
    and now have a 2012 A4 Quattro

    Love them. But the 08 had 180,000 miles when we traded it in. Constant smog issues. O2 sensor kept going out. Other little shit. Decided not to take the chance. New one is nice, but I agree with previous posters. Don't do it.

    Brother had an A4 around that year, a few years back. So much money spent on maintaining it

    Damn bro that’s harsh! I don’t think that’s it at all either.... the VBO folks are wheeling/camping with others all the time.... have you guys tried to get a group chat going or something with Blake or any of the other VB peeps? To get a trip planned?

    Been looking for a commuter, something like a CRV. I know it’ll be boring as shit but it’ll at least keep me from spending money on it

    Some flags and center console divider... lots of things on the wanted list.
    Tried to talk the wife into going camping this last time. She politely told me to go fuck myself... Lol. But I'm pretty much done with anything this year. Waiting on a call to schedule my knee surgery.
