"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
Some fantastic deals can be had on used Audis. Not sure why they don't hold the value, but I sure take advantage of it!
Perhaps this Audi thing in this country goes back to the spurious claims that gave the 5000 the reputation for suddenly accelerating on it's own (always when pulling into a garage though)They even had to change its name to the 100 to regain some sales.
I recently sold my Audi for a decent price. Great car. I'm now driving a 2013 Range Rover and a 1966 ca160 Honda Dream. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I know we won't see the Lexus service department other than oil changes for the next 4-5 years but the reviews I read on the Range Rover went from "ok" to "awful". Everyone absolutely loves driving them, but they spent a lot of time in the shop and not as much time on the road. But it did seem as if most everyone was willing to overlook the reliability/dependability issues and own them due to the good times being really good. If I thought I wouldn't be the one dealing with the vehicle every time it has an issue maybe I could see owning one, but I'd be the one taking it to and from the service department and I really didn't want that on my already full plate.

Has that improved?
We just drove down from Wichita Kansas through Round Rock (and Pflugerville) to Austin to buy another used Subaru Forester. We've been looking for one, and found a decent one on Craigslist. We got back last night. (Alas I didn't see Alan or Mimosa anywhere!) :-)Foresters have developed significant fan base and we've really enjoyed ours. We may keep the older one and turn it into a rolling billboard. We don't really do vehicle wraps, but we can sure decorate it ourselves. We used to have a sign business before we began to specialize in garment decorating.Wowee Dallas isn't much fun on I35 for thru-traffic. I havent been there in about 10 years. What a mess!
