[s-cars] Quattro....there is no substitute

[Mtgadbois at aol.com]

I concur with you all.  I'm in the western suburbs of Chicago and  we were 
blessed about 10" of snow.  I stayed home because I can.   Drove around in the 
wife's Pacifica until I got too depressed.  Drove my  Audi out of the 
side-yard, well covered with snow.  Why was it abandoned by  me?  Long story but let's 
just say frozen pipes and the garage is now a  furniture warehouse.  Got the 
Audi out on the road and the rest of the  day was FUN.  At least the wife 
didn't get to see me put it sideways into a  parking slot - perfect fit.  5 Audis 
over 25 years - I wonder what one will  be number 6.  Oh well - Chicago Auto 
show is on.
 
May you all get the snow you seek,

Taka nailed it.. And Bill confirms why we  hang on to these old sleds.

I can't wait to experience the reported 1-2  feet of powder back in NH
with the S4.  
( and more to the point,  shred some turns come Saturday)

Taka's summary is I've been wanting to  know, not having the chance to
drive a Haldex in adverse  conditions.

So Bill "so how do we get packed snow from the wheel  rims"
It's called April  Sun! 

Taka "  wanting an Audi again  in a very bad way"

Better plan to get the proper one before ALL the good  stuff is Haldex,
