Re: droF 051 4x4 - was no subject

Bruce,

Was this actually on the quattro list?  I must have missed it somehow.
Thanks for being nice to Dan.  

    [Later...  Dan's post came in after I wrote this one.]

To say a quattro is a 4x4 is akin to saying a stealth fighter is an
airplane.  :-)

I must disagree a bit, however.  While this group came together, so to
speak, as a result of a common interest in things Audi, I'd like to think
that at least some of us have made some rather good long-distance friends.  :-)

BTW I happen to own a '95 droF Ranger 4x4 about which I know even less than
I do about my Audi.  And that ain't much.  :-(  But I'm learning.  :-)
