 Nice. I plan on purchasing an SQ5 soon. 

We looked at the Q5/SQ5 back in Jan. when my wife was looking for an SUV, we test drove it and it felt smaller and more cramped than we were looking for in an SUV so we passed. Plus my wife wasnt a huge fan of the MMI interface either, we were looking at used models to it didnt have the touch screen like some of the newer models have.

You owned an Aztek... clearly your judgment in cars is not to be trusted 😃

One of the most functional cars I've ever known. Rear seats didn't even just fold down, you could take them out entirely. I camped, I kayaked, I fished, I took my dog all over the place, I traveled, I golfed… Was perfect.

And it drove pretty well, too, for something that size.

Best Forgotten: The Story of the Pontiac Aztek (caranddriver.com)

Off topic, but I'm the OP so I think it fits. For those that don't want to read it. The best line is: "It’s so powerfully ugly that a blobfish wouldn’t be seen next to it."

Why would I want a tiny car typically driven by those with penis envy

This reminds me of a conversation I had with my wife today about our driveway plowing contract. They come out if there is at least 3 inches of snowfall. We only got 2 inches last night, but my wife thought it was close to 3.

I had to break the long held marital secret that what I was telling her was 3 inches all of these years is actually only 2 inches.

The question is in your garage...I have a huge shop...🤣. So with unlimited funds, the garage would be whatever SUV my wife wanted and I'd take a brand new Crew cab Ford truck. I'd save the toys for the shop...😀. Is that cheating the question?

Okay, this is a topic which I'm sure will be fun to hear the answers from the group of folks here on TST. 

On a conference call yesterday my boss lead off with this ice breaker question: You can only put two cars in your garage. However, let's assume you have unlimited funds. If you can only own two cars which two cars would you own? Remember cost doesn't matter, but you can only own two cars. By the way they don't have to be cars. Trucks, vans, sport utes are also acceptable. No airplanes, helicopters or hover crafts. 

I actually had to go first. Having never though about the question before I went with a Tesla Model S and a Dodge Ram 1500 TRX. --- I was mocked for being a little boring. But, I stand by my answer. 

Okay, so what two cars would you put in your garage? 

A 2021 Audi A4 and a skateboard.  The latter is soon to be an Olympic sport.

Eh, it’ll be my daily driver. My wife already has our family vehicle. I think it’ll fit my needs.

I'm garaging my two favorite vehicles: a Volkswagon Thing and a 1971 Ford F-100...Two tone, red and white, with 5 yellow lights on the top of the cab.  Pull up to a keg party in the latter and someone is going to say..."Hey ya'll...there's a tow truck here".

In der bag:
Cleveland Hi-Bore driver, Maltby 5 wood, Maltby hybrid, Maltby irons and wedges (23 to 50) Vokey 59/07, Cleveland Niblick (LH-42), and a Maltby mallet putter.                                                                                                                                                 "When the going gets tough...it's tough to get going."

Yeah the SQ5 would be great then if you already have a family vehicle. 350hp and a 0-60 of 5 seconds is plenty quick for most people especially in an SUV. I like the fit/finish and styling of Audis in general, I was really close to getting an S5 Sportback a couple months ago until I test drove a Tesla Model 3 :whistle:

      Would You Rather…?

      By WillieT ·

      First - glad to see these popping up again. Now to the topic at hand - I would rather be option 1.  If I know how far it's going (I mean a yard or two) I can always play to the wider parts of the fairway and/or the green and still do reasonably well.  Now if I could just really hit the "number" that well.

      Day 2 (10 Mar 25) - Long day of driving to dr appt with son.  Thankfully got in one of my fave putting drills (two ball side by side) - the goal to have both balls come off the putter face equally by having them come off the putter face as close to the same time as possible.  First few rolls - the toe was leading the way as that ball flew off the face.  By the end of the drill both balls were basically equal off the face, rolling to within a couple of inches of each other.  Nice drill of focusing on squaring the face.  BTW - I was using the old Odyssey DF992.

      Day 161 - 2025-03-10 Got a decent, long session in. Focused mostly on the backswing feels, and moved on toward the end of the four hours (not all hitting balls, I installed a motion sensing light switch in there too, and worked with a student over FaceTime for a bit) on the downswing feel.
