adieu...

well, i traded in the 2004 TL yesterday morning (10/29) and picked up the 2005 S4. it was sad at first, but as soon as i took the car for a drive, the smile was pretty hard to remove from my face. as much as i loved the TL, i think what i was trying to do/attain with it with the mods is all done in the S4 in its factory form.

i actually just got back from the southern part of NJ. i logged in at least 210 miles on my first day with the S4. i first drove to northern NJ then all the way to exit 4 off the nj turnpike to visit a friend. loved every minute of it. XM was transfered 10 minutes after i got off the phone with the XM CSR. gas mileage on the highway was not that bad. i used up close to 3/4 of a tank with all my driving.

thanks again to everyone!! i will still be visiting this forum. it has been like a family to me.....

I understand the smile thing 3putt, I just got my s4 avant on the 26th and probably have that same smile when I'm driving mine.

Congrats!

From what I hear that S4 is a hell of a Ride.

Which model did you get? and how much did it run?
