Summer tires are back on.

You guys that don't are missing out.

Meh, I have a built Lexus GX for that. Loads more fun to power through snow banks and not worry about clearance and still have a v8.

I took my winters off a couple of weeks ago, we've been fairly lucky up here in Southern Ontario this year and have had double-digit temps (Celsius) for a couple of weeks now... Hit 27C last Thursday in my area and even had a bit of a thunderstorm. Out of the ordinary for this time of year for sure, but I'll take it! Usually we are still dealing with the death throes of winter until the end of April.

What's winter?

Meh, I'd rather walk than drive a Toyota again.

Good thing I own both and a supercharged Adui then? Got all my bases covered.

As much as I like the idea of an Audi, I can't in good conscience give any money to the VAG.

I agree. Audi does make some cool looking cars though....

... There is a subtle difference in feel.

For me the difference isn't that subtle. Those Blizzak's are like marshmallows.

Whys that? Because of the acronym or because of the TDI scandal hah.

No, I won't support a company who's namesake is a car designed for Hitler and originally built on the backs of concentration camp slave labor. I also won't wear anything by Hugo Boss. In case it's not clear, I realllllyyyy hate Nazi's.

I mean... if thats the case you should get rid of your Mustang since Ford was anti-semitic and Hitler even acknowledged that in his book.

Henry Ford may have been an anti-Semite, but then again, so were his peers in industry and government. We can move past the follies of past prejudice, but I don't think any company should profit from the Holocaust.

There was a German division of Ford (Ford-Werke) that produced civilian and military vehicles in Germany during the 30s and 40s. They used slave labor during the period before the US entry into the war and continued to do so afterwards. They also produced turbines for the V-2 rockets. After the US paid Ford for bombing damage caused by the US during the war, they were back up and running in May, 1945. In 1950, Ford rehired Robert Schmidt, who had run the division as general director under the Nazis.

much difference...because Viper.
