Default Farewell...

Finally unloaded my 350 and picked up a new a4 avant. I was never a big poster on here, but I did get a lot of great info. Farewell!

Was the reason for more space for kids and equipment?

I've always been a fan of avants. I had a b5 s4 avant before I bought the IS. Its just a 4-banger so it doesn't have as much kick as my 2 previous vehicles, but has a better road feel than my IS. Its fully loaded except for nav and the rear shades. Titanium, sline, conv., bluetooth, and the ipod. I just had my second kid and needed a little more space. My wife likes to sit in the back with my daughter and it was impossible to fit the infant carrier in the middle and my sons convertible seat. Now I can fit all 3 in the back. It was also impossible to get my double stroller in the trunk. I had to practically take the whole thing apart.
