I have a couple OLED's which I bought locally. The price is the same from authorized dealers so it was easier to run down to the local store and not have to wait or deal with shipping - especially if there are any future warranty claims.

I also use a WSM which runs circles around my friend's Brinkmann in terms of heat & cook consistency and fuel usage. Been drooling over Green Mountain Grills (GMG) for several years now, but been reluctant to spend that much. As life has been busier and busier the lure of a pellet smoker has been gr...

Wife has a '19 Acadia as a work vehicle which so far has been problem free (only 11k miles). The latest generation is smaller than the previous one. Her previous car was a '18 Ford Flex, she prefers the Acadia a lot more.

Current house PITI ~ 12% of gross. It is being listed for sale next week and new house range will be approx. 14-15%.

A friend of mine just totaled out his 2000 VW Jetta with the 1.8L turbo 4 at 280k miles. Never had any turbo issues while he owned the car.

The internal wastegate was a common weak point on the KO3's

From your original list though, I would get the Audi. However the RS7 has a torque converted automatic. The S7 is the one with the dual clutch. I'd take a dual clutch over a slushbox any day, especially if you're coming from driving a manual transmission, and the dual clutch in the VW/Audi's are ex...

I work for a Swiss company here in the States and several years ago considered a permanent relocation offer to HQ in Zurich. Make sure you work with HR to review projected cost of health insurance, pension, canton taxes, etc. and if they provide any subsidy for expat tax preparation. Hopefully the c...

If you have a Nordstroms local go get fitted and see what the tailor has to say about your friend. Their semi annual men's sale is right around Father's Day and brands such as Hugo Boss can be had for approx. 50% off. I have a 10+" difference between my chest and waist and the tailor does wonders wi...

I expect these are a lot of fun and that cost is very low. I looked into getting a kart for my son some years ago and went to a race up at NHMS to ask around and check things out. But these were more $2500 used, $6000 new karts. They'd weigh in, change the added weights on the kart to get to an ide...
