Should you want to "try it before you buy it" (or see how it holds up to constant abuse) I discovered that Hertz is offering S4 Cab for special rental rates at those locations offering Prestige Rentals (Also A6 and A8L too). While $100 ~ 105 for a week day ~ weekend day are a little steep, I got a Monday to Monday rental for $547 with tax and everything (don't ask -- they consider that seven days). I figured it would be a great "test fit" and see how well the car is holding up after hosting all those rental car abusers. With unlimited mileage, I figure a quick trip to Vegas and taking my wife up to the local mountains (and all those fun, twisty roads)would be just the ticket. Limited offer through 6/31/05.

usually get them when I go out there, makes it a little more fun :) I think SF and Vegas have them as well. Most of the airports will be getting or already have the A6s and some of them have the A8Ls.

Does make it much nicer to drive an Audi when traveling :) Although it makes me appreciate my Stoptechs and Coilovers when I get back :)
