Maybe my wife's old Sunfire is just junk compared to my A4, but we both notice our AWD A4 handles much MUCH better on rainy roads than the FWD Sunfire.I think I'll buy the StabiliTrack. The theory seems very sound. Think of it as ABS for driving mode.

I've been going back and forth in my head about buying an AWD vs. FWD vs. FWD with StabiliTrack. I have a 96 A4 Quattro (AWD) and really like how it handles during spotty weather. I live in Texas but rain and oily slick roads is always a concern.Does anyone have StabiliTrack or driven with it and ca...

I am considering a Vibe AWD or a Rav4 AWD. Rav4 drove like a truck whereas the Vibe was very smooth. Makes sense I know given the skeleton differences between the two. We had ruled out the Rav4 BUT ...All this paint stuff has me really concerned (I think I've read most of the threads). I like the Sh...

Hi. Anybody know whether the "Supplier" price on a dealer's invoice includes the standard $560 destination charge? Haven't got that far with the dealer yet and want to be prepared if they try to pull a fast one. If it is not then the "GM in the Driveway" price does not seem that ...
