Oh, wow. So they're adding more idiots to AoA, huh? Seems like AoA has
become dumping ground for incompetent poops VAG couldn't get rid of...

On the other hand, I wouldn't mind my local VW/Audi/Porsche/Mazda/etc.
dealer drops Audi. I attribute Audi's current success in U.S. due to its
model line-up. And AoA is working against that success. How odd. How
trapezoidal.
