Better to do it alone. They freak out. Last couple times she came out to see the Truck waiting and she turned around and said, we are not going out to dinner in this car, are we?This is a bigger problem than the STOP Sale and compensation. Haven't figured this one out yet. Best of luck either way.

No, that would be a "retired gymnast without a rich husband". I did not mean professional in terms of making living out of it but rather 2 workouts a day for 15 years and a national championship or two.

But on a serious note, the ride is not bad at all. I find that on longer trips the noise is more tiring than ride. But the Gs you can pull on this car very confidently is something not many passengers can handle.

When you say the truck... Are you referring to the 04 Cayenne-S or the 2010 GT3?

I prefer to think of it in terms of how far automobile design has come. So kudos to Porsche! This is true of many technologies. Our phone have become phenomenally more useful, yet I have no desire to go back to a rotary phone. The fact that I can do much more with a phone today make it more versatile and useful to me. Just like I car I can track and still enjoy on a long trip with my better half.

Tundra Rock warrior. Sits up higher than GT3 & smoother ride than GT3
