The first couple of pics are before the snow hit hard , my dads brand new camaro is under that huge pile, just for fun you can see a mountain home I used to have keep accessible. It was on an open face at 10000 ft. The small drift is the beginning of the season and the tall one is after a few months

I worked on the oil Rigs in ND and can attest to this craziness but some of those old poles are surprisingly low. Nonetheless, wrapping your head around this type of weather is just nuts. So is being at the top of an oil derrick (approx 150') in 50 mph blowing snow when its around -20 F ambient. We had worse days but that was an average bad day hahah. Coolest experience you never want to do again. Roughnecking is no joke.

Still snowed in with 3 feet of snow. Watched the idiot neighbor's step son pitch a hissy fit trying to get out of the cul de sac with his Jeep. it was both comical and sad at the same time knowing my neighbor has to deal with this idiot.

The snow was up to the roof of the Flex before I dug it out before the wind stop Saturday night, son's mustang is still buried. Just to put in perspective the fence in the back ground is 6 feet tall and the ground is level to the fence.

No, I have a friend with one though and they love it. Funny story about that particular Toureg. One night I came home after a rugby event (a few beers MAY have been ingested) and I parked closer than usual. I woke up to a note on the windshield stating "I Pay For Park, You Park Too CLOSE!!!" They were right. However I kept the note "just in case". Sure enough, a few weeks later they did the same thing accidentally getting too close to me, I could hardly get in my door. I took that note and calmly placed in under there windshield wiper with a huge smiley face written on it. VINDICATION! Nothing more needed to be said, plus they are Asian so read the note in your head accordingly haha.

Nice. I have no excuse for not being in the "office" since I work from home. But with the Federal Government shut down, it's been pretty light.

Those are AWESOME numbers, how much of a tune and pipe work? Pretty basic stuff or major re plumbing and remapping? Ive been toying with the idea of putting a Cummins 4BT in my Jeep Wrangler. You can get about 450 lb ft of torque and 45 mpg for about $8000 worth of motor and work. 45 mpg and that kind of power out of a jeep with 35's! What are your fav things about the Touareg?

Stage II custom tune, larger turbo, complete exhaust delete (DPF and Secondary Cat), and AdBlue delete.

I am probably only one of a handful Treg owners with this setup in the US. Buzzken fabricated the exhaust for me, I was a test case for him prior to production.

The chassis shares parts with the Cayenne....and it shows when you drive it. Acceleration, handling, interior fit and finish....love this vehicle. It pulls like a freight train without having to downshift.
