LOL! I knew you'd get all upset over my light hearted banter.
Both of mine are VW's. Those that know me and have helped recently know my love/hate relationship. VAG's are VERY nice but do require more maintenance. I won't deny that. The more I drive my car, the more I love it though.
ALL cars have their prob's. Some electrical, some tranny, some rust, etc. Drive what you love. There will be lovers and haters of everything.
Congrats OP. If the new ride makes you happy, rock it.
PS ~ My second, and primarily driven, VW has just 1 code.
