what a cool tree Don. Looks like job security for you.
does the community have a grapple for the tractors?
Ron, I think it's all about using cruise control constantly. It's only a 2 liter four in there, but in top gear and low load, it's decently economical.
Not hybrid or electric economical but maybe the rung below. When it runs out of warranty in four years, I'm pretty sure there will be better electric alternatives.
I'm not a fan of Tesla interiors at all. Volvo's are about as spartan as I could take, but Audi does seriously nice interiors. I just won't own one out of warranty...
A lifetime friend of mine has the older model Q5 with the six cylinder, and the new four out accelerates the old six and gets better gas mileage.
But likely the six was smoother. DSG just bangs off the shifts in either version. Remarkable transmission but has serious issue when at stop, as in rolling back.
There is play in the system there some place and it can surprise you. My older Golf TDI did the same thing. I don't know if Porsche PDK version has same jerkiness issue at stop, seems you could design it out, but maybe the trans shifts so fast that's the price of admission.
spent hours yesterday sorting through old family pictures in ancient storage boxes, got a snoot full of dust. Found some of my cousin and her family and headed down to post office to get one of those mailer boxes. Then I'm going to bake muffins today for food pantry volunteers tomorrow. I already bought my ten pounds of carrots and two bags of sweet potatoes. I have two criteria, healthy food and low cost per pound. And since carrots and sweet potatoes are pretty durable, they usually get sold before pull date at the supermarket, so the food pantry doesn't get much of those vegetables. I'm happy to do this every couple of weeks.
Monday morning. Hope it's a nice one for you.
