Haha, it was my first day back from Austria, it had snowed the day prior and the freeways were sanded, when I drove into town the roads were just dirty with sand but I didnt know, as I was driving into town in the middle lane I spotted a gas can in my lane, looked right..car, looked left......open, went in left lane but as I turned to line back up in the lane the rear end slid out, for the next 10 seconds I was sliding left and right down the freeway trying to keep it from wrecking, the last fishtail just was too far and she nosed into the center divider at 35mph. It COULD have been repaired but the repair cost was 26% of the cars value so my insurance totaled the car. No one was hurt and I avoided all the other cars on the road, the car behind me hit the gas can and his truck briefly caught fire when the fuel hit his cat converter.

Hi there.

Those Audis could grow on you. My nephew is working for Audi as well. If I ever need an excuse to buy an Audi that will suffice! lol
