Taking my first road trip this weekend.
I'm headed to the Hill Country for some food and festivities. It will be good to get out and stretch the S4's legs a bit now that it's all broken in.

You got a V1?

I suggest you set your speed warning indicator before you leave. These things will get away from you in a heartbeat. I was coming back from a business meeting a few weeks ago with an colleague and had to "hurry" to get on the expressway in front of two semis. By the time we merged into light traffic I asked my friend, "Mike, how fast do you think we are going?" He said, "70 or 75?" I said, "How about 105." I set my speed warning indicator to 80 as soon as we got back to the office. These things are sneaky fast on the road. I hope you get great weather and have a wonderful road trip. Enjoy your new Audi!

have a great time. i took one last weekend and I got pretty good mileage, 28.6 on the trip computer and 26.8 when i filled it up and did the math, averaged 70-75, way to many police to push it although i was able to punch it a few times and 100 comes awful fast!

Did my first road trip last week. Drove from CT to Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY. Front end of car was a bug graveyard! Got about 300+ miles out of tank mainly driving in comfort mode on highway. Thought I could get more but better than my normal average. Most comfortable and enjoyable car I have ever taken on a road trip!
