You quickly get used to larger ground clearance. For example, last weekend I
went to a beach...all parking slots on pavement were occupied, so I parked
my Subaru on a dirt road with small rocks - no problem...had it been a
regular car I would have scratched its bottom for sure.
But I'm tired of Subarus because their automatic transmissions suck - and
I'm too lazy to drive stick.
Audi's get great reviews (on edmunds.com and Consumer Reports), but it seems
hard to get a rugged Audi (except for their SUV, of course).

I see. Maybe it's worth investigating...but I probably won't buy a new car
for another year or two - by that time 2005 models will be 4-5 years old
already.

True, but most owners of Allroads (including myself) take good care of them.
Lots of people on this group have other Audis 15-20 years old and are still
driving them.

In Canada, only about 300-400 were sold every year it was sold, making it
somewhat uncommon and currently in demand as a used vehicle. When it was
originally on the market, it was the best crossover vehicle out there (not
only in appearance, but certainly in performance).
