RE: 97 Avant Q poor in snow!
The latest from my neighbor ----
Yesterday, we got a horrendous snowstorm in New England. It started at 2 PM and dropped 1-2 inches per hour, sometimes 3, until 9 PM. Driving was so bad that the snowplows couldn’t get thru the traffic to clean the roads. It took me 4 hours to do a trip that normally takes an hour. When I finally got home I drove the A6 thru a 2 foot pile of snow at the end of the driveway and parked it in 12 inches of snow near the garage.
After I got home I had a stiff drink and waited until the snow stopped before attempting to clean my driveway. At 9:30 I went outside to clean things up and found most of the drive cleared. It seems that my neighbor had gotten upset that his tractor didn’t work in the snow, so he bought a big snow blower attachment so he could have fun. I think he got my wife’s rose bushes and I know he got the new pine trees, but he didn’t hit the Audi. The last we saw he was headed towards town to do the fire station, municipal parking lots, and local public drinking establishment. He really likes the drinking establishment because they don’t have them where he come from.
I think I join him after he does the fire station and parking lot.

RE: 97 Avant Q poor in snow!
We had the same storm come through yesterday. Massive snowstorm, and the snow fell at about 2 inches an hour. None of the roads were plowed. The Audi was unbelieveable. I was passing all sorts of spun out cars, even pickups. Going up hills, down hills, through snow over a foot deep. It didnt matter. I have never driven anything this good in the snow.

Latest development re Audi Q in snow
We got another snow storm today with 4-6 inches and my Audi A6 did not do any better than the rest of the nuts on the road. All I could do was crawl along at 25 mph in the passing lane of Rt 495 with the rest of the idiots.
Nocternal --I know you'll find this shocking -aDodge minivan was able topass me because he was in the center lane and it went two cars lengths fasterthan mine. I can hardly waight to get home tonight and tell my neighbor about it.I know he dosen't understand my Audi but he certainly will understand the Minivan because it is like a truck with a cap and no hood.
