    That you are right. I’m looking forward to low maintenance costs amongst many other perks.

    did the same thing - 07 S4 ===> Tacoma 2012 DCLB. Loved the S4, but it never would have gotten me to the middle of Canyonlands.

    Not nuts really but I imagine you'll miss the performance of the s4. I had a 09 335i before my Tacoma so I understand. Just a different kind of fun now. I did have a 02 s6 also. I do miss that car but was afraid of what issues were going to come up.

    I had a friend who's husband was a Audi tech at a dealer. He told her he would never buy her an Audi.

    My wife has had two Audi's. I absolutely loved driving them, how they felt, everything. But the maintenance cost/repair cost, chewing through tires at an alarming rate, just takes all the enjoyment out of it. If you look at the used ones, they've all got like 48k miles or are near 4 years old. Only oblivious people buy them used, and I can't imagine they do it multiple times.
