Here's what I LOVE most about my A6. It'll go anywhere, in any weather.

Don't need low range with an automatic... I live on a cliff in VT, never had a problem..
I hate driving trucks in snow, you get no feedback from the wheel at all.
Besides, an Xterra isn't a 'truck'.
this is a truck:<img src="http://audi.kris-hansen.com/images/audiworld/ram_0.jpg">
Our old Ram 2500 Cummins turbo diesel...

The soul, the comfort, the power, the handling, the aesthetic . . . the list goes on and on . . .
I drove a top-of-the-line, supercharged 2006 Range Rover for a week while on vacation last week, and when I got back into my Audi it felt like I had taken a step up. I know the RR is a truck, but it is a luxury truck, and for $100k+, it oughta be better than my 2002 car that retailed around $50k brand new. Plus (this goes to the stealth factor mentioned by Cargasm2.7), I couldn't help but feel like a jerk in the RR - it's over the top.

Yeah, gotta love tons of ground clearance. That's about the only thing I lack...
And proved it by parking my A6 atop a 4 foot pile of snow wedneday. Oops. My fault, I backed down my driveway after a failed attempt, and got sucked into the huge pile of snow by accident. Now keep in mind, I DID manage to get through it originally, going forward, and about 30mph.
There was no way I was going through it at 5 mph and backwards though.. It lifted both rear wheels clear off of the ground.. All I could do was walk the 1/4 mile up my driveway (anyone who has been up will tell you what it's like.. ) and get my tractor.
the Xterra is a fine vehicle, but it's just not a truck. Don't feel bad, it's not meant as an insult. Being a 'polished redneck' from Vermont, I live in the land of trucks.

The interior. It's like a mobile decompression chamber...
It's difficult to blend luxury, clean aesthetics, ergonomics and quality, but Audi does it well. The only thing I would wish different is diamond-quilted leather for the seats, a la Arnage T or some late-model Lamborghinis.
