Assuming you're serious it stands for "Off Topic". It's a separate forum under the General section for members only. If you're sane and rational when you go in you won't be when you come out! There were an awful lot of political discussions for the 2 yrs. prior to the most recent US elections and even the most mundane thread that didn't start out political inevitably wound up that way. There are some real radicals in OT! I used to pruse the threads just for entertainment, don't anymore, it was too scary.

thank you for clarification and I WAS serious about my question and yes I am aware of the scary section of the forum.

Sorry if that is common forum knowledge!

Back on topic I have only had my S Cayenne about a week but already I absolutely love it. People who don't understand first class travel don't get the car - I'll leave them to their miserly economy class seats and enjoy the ride
Bluetooth? Nah... we never discuss that around here...

I've posted in OT once or twice... it's not too scary if you don't take it too seriously...

2 things:
1. I would just set it on fire and toast marshmallows while it burned to the ground.

Are you suggesting that you'd like to be buried in a Cayenne???

Hmmmn, only if Dr W and Peter the Great are strapped into the back seat, firmly and permanently held in place by the A506 Cowboy Belt Buckle "fix"

And then of course you set the Cayenne on fire, set us adrift and give us all a Viking funeral.

Blazing Cayenne....that sounds familiar.....oh yeah, Cayenne Hybrid prototype 'uncontained thermal event'......classic.

The loaner I got last time had that new-fangled PCM 3 touchscreen radio and in 3 days I never did figure out how to turn the radio "off". All I could do is mute it (only worked until I started the vehicle up again) or turn the volume way down, but never did figure out how to turn it fully off. I like to turn the radio off before I shut my vehicles off, keeps me from being "surprised" when I start them up again.

I couldn't RTFM because they don't leave the FM's in the loaner cars........

It's not new-fangled.
It is an engineering work of art. A masterpiece.

Ingrates....Larry always hated designing for ingrates.
