Slightly closer. There's a burger joint about 5 miles to the east called "Snack Shack". Went and got a bunch of food for the family and drove it home.

Good man.

I have always wanted to stop by on my way to Papa Keno's for Pizza.

Enjoy your car.
My Galaxy Blue is on a boat right now.

Thought I'd share the bad news. 6 days into ownership the eTron got rear-ended by some guy too busy lighting his cigarette to fully stop behind me at the stop sign. Damage is minimal, no obvious frame issues. the tiniest of gap changes on the right side of the bumper where it meets the trunk. Appears 100% bumper replacement (all 4 pieces).

Only problem now is that the tow hook cover is gone and it looks pretty silly. 4-6 weeks minimum for parts, I'm told. Likely longer.

Oh, no. sorry to hear. If you are looking to install the tow hitch this is the time, as removal of the bumper is required for install.

That sucks. Sorry to hear it.

Need ADAS systems in more vehicles to reduce easily preventable stupid human accidents.
