may i ask why u didn't look into a g wagon?

 

ergonomics, price, value, wanted to be able to get 4-5 kids in sometimes as well.

We use this truck for family trips, my wife depends on it for bad weather, and also some mild off roading.

Just didn't think the G-wagon was a good match for us for these roles.

 

Congrats! Sounds like a fun trip.

 

Thanks, we are looking forward to it.

Now need to fiugre out what to do in Ingostadt on a Sun.

In addition to finding a town square for e beer and pretzel.

 

I've studied close to Ingolstadt and still live no more than 1,5 hours away. If you need any advice on what to do when and where, feel free to contact me.

 

We arrive in am at Munich, Audi send s a car to take us to Ingolstadt. Presumably be there around lunch time, feeling a bit jet lagged, with 12 and 13 yr old in tow.

Any recommendations of things the kids might like to see that afternoon is appreciated. Usually we do something not too taxing, have an early dinner and try and get a good nights sleep. We pick the car up and tour Audi on Mon. Then we will travel around to some areas away from there.

 

Nice!

My wife's Q7 TDI has been great…except for the diesel fuel gelling during the polar vortex…grrr.

 

really? in the tank?

details?

 

Recently read about MB having trouble with Midwest diesel that has too much biofuel in it, where are you?

 

The pour point of the winter diesel we have in Chicagoland with a max of 5% biodiesel was -20. It got down to -18 at my wife's hospital garage where she left it overnight since she was on call.

The next day, the engine turned over, but wouldn't stay running. It wouldn't start until 3 days later when the temps were >0.

Now, I add a diesel additive to lower the pour point even lower. It reached -14 1 day with no issues.

This is the stuff we used...although I really don't know if you need it in WV.
