Still deciding. Probably not for day 1. That route has more slab than I like.

Live a little...lol

Sweet unicycle!

I think so

Luxury brands in general don't hold their value so well. Bad for new buyers, great when buying used. The Hyundia Genesis, while a really nice, well built car, is the poster child for shitty resale value. If you go with something German, there's a place in N Ridgeville called Ianelli. They service and sell (used) German cars, they have a good reputation and service is cheaper than going to a dealer. The A4 I bought was the personal car of someone that works there.

Any have GPS or Google maps routes to post?

I driven fast cars...911s, various years of Vettes, ridiculously built muscle cars. They are fun, no argument...but the amount of $$ that you need to be even come close the performance of a used, stock sportbike just doesn't make sense for me or my wallet. Kind of like boats. Boats are super fun, but I'd rather have a friend with a boat then own one myself

If you get an Audi you want Quattro. The Quattro system is reliable and doesn't have ANY scheduled maintenance (at least on the gen I have). Also,.the CVT transmissions (only on FWD) are known to fail. The Manual or Tiptronic transmission on the Quattros are much more reliable. Quattros also drive much nicer. Anything German is going to have some maintenance/repair costs, but the big stuff should be solid to 200k+ if it was maintained properly. ( I would't touch one without maintenance records).

Tim, I really have never been impressed by "fast" cars. Fast is for 2 wheels, cars are slow. Nice interior and no rattles pretty much tops my list. Then the ability to go around corners at a decent pace, but I'm not trying to race anyone. The A4 checks all my boxes, and it's more fun to drive then my MKX. I have zero interest in "tuning'" a car or buying something that puts me in a really high insurance bracket.

You are welcome to take a look at mine if you want. Mine isn't perfect, but has zero rust, no annoying rattles, and is mechanically sound. Oh, and I got it for a song... I wouldn't call the (stock) 2.0T fast, but it's enough to be entertaining.

Audi A4 2.0T. Good gas mileage, fun to drive, nice interior. I just picked up a very nice 2007 with about 150K, for way less than your 10k budget. It's fun to drive and solidly built. I bought it as a second car that is more fun to drive then my main vehicle.

Is it really that hard to find good BBQ? It's just BBQ, not particularly difficult to make.

Old enough to forget.

That new Street Rod could have been a home run for HD. It wasn't. The riding position makes zero sense for a naked bike with pretty limited sporting capabilities. It was clearly a product of "design by committee" by people with few (if any) miles on sporty motorcycles. They still need another model to attract younger buyers to help lift sagging sales. Congrats on the Fat Bob, that looks to be the most interesting of HD's new models.

Kalishnikov also made Vodka. I have a pretty old, unopened bottle in my liquor cabinet.

Right, and my tires should be pretty cooked by then.

I plan to ride down, but let me know if there's a spot open on the return voyage.

Paying off a mortgage early is a bad financial decision 98% of the time.

I'd like to be that unsuccessful...you realize he's a billionaire, right?
