I have to push it down to get going anywhere at a slightly better than slow pace. (stock a6 w00t)

You just made it sound like it wasn't possible to get 30mpg on your turbo teg :P

i'm sure to you a great ride is ebay shocks with cut springs bouncing around in your super handling 97econobox

my suspension is stock and cut srpings or ebay springs are ---- thats why I wont lower the car. cant find any i like as far as drop is concerned that I wanna pay for.

and my bone stock 80K mile D16y8 got 40 to the gallon on a trip to danville. Filled up once and drove 409 miles to that tank but I just knew I was gonna end up pushing it to the pump but it never even studdered.
