You really are stretching for something to say.

I don't have to make that up. Nor do I actually think that. Funny is you are directly talking about me. So I ask how could it not be about me?

Thats why I said maybe stuff on the roof. He said outdoor lifestyle, he didn’t elaborate so roof stuff is a possibility is all I am saying. I had cars with racks mounted on sedans and on wagons with roof rails. If you are shopping for outdoor lifestyle (whatever that means) and something on the roof is what you need.…

As long as you dont get the package with the side and back cladding. And those clear tail lights. I like the over shape and look. But some of them just get ruined with the trim packages.

Depends on how tall your are. I’m at 6 feet, so I would cross off the GTI if you plan on driving with them any farther then 3o minutes. If your wife’s car is big enough for the road trip then the GTI could be fine.

Does it fit his outdoor lifestyle that he mentioned? And good snow drivability? I understand snow tires but we are not quite sure what exactly he does. But it sounds like he desires awd, ground clearance, loading space for gear and maybe stuff on the roof.

Does that fit his outdoor lifestyle? Though admittedly he didn't elaborate on what he actually does outdoors.

Really, saying you want a car for kids is just saying you dont want a 2 seater or 2 door coupe. He didn't say he wanted the full on family vehicle just yet. Outdoor lifestyle and a real back seat is what he is asking for. And some people will desire that even without kids.

The reality in saying you want a car that can handle kids is just saying you want a car with a reasonable back seat. Read 4 doors. Nothing wrong with that even if the kid things doesn't work out it would still be good for the occasional adult to ride in.

People that are smart with money and don’t but a new car every 2 years.

He just got engaged. It’s pretty common to have a kid within a few years after getting married. He talked about it with is fiancee I’m sure as most do. He’s not sure but has plans. Regardless of if the kid thing works out he wants a vehicle he can out a human in the back seat.

I haven't driven one but from I've been told the Volvo is not as pleasing to drive.

Better reliability and road feel. But the trade off is space since its built off the a4 platform.

No air ride would be much more desirable in my book. Problem with that all road as it may be on the small side since it’s an a4 platform.

Keep telling yourself that. You can't hide behind the fact you came here to bash me.

There we go, another put down. A poor one for sure but still a put down.

Lmao, running out of put downs?

You might need to check out how the internet works. This all falls under my initial post. You replied to my initial post on another blog, then followed me here to harass. You were a pending member here when you did it.

You call me delusional yet have you ever looked at yourself?
