Yes, in for the dune’ed Thing. I dunno man, I’m the farthest thing from a truck guy and I’ll gladly drive the 3500HD around without question. Something about being jacked up two feet taller than 99% of everything else around you on the road gives me a sense of security and comfort beyond cushy seats :lol If it had better tires for snow I’d be driving it right now but it’s a 6000lb skate at the moment. Def go drive various stuff. You never know, you may find the most odd of cars to be the one you like the most for a DD ---

Just sell the Audi and put the money aside for gas money if thats really an issue. I cant really understand why you bought a 16 year old car with over 100k on it anyway. Seemed like kind of an odd purchase to me. In all honesty Im really surprised that youre complaining about gas mileage. If it was me complaining about gas mileage people would be telling me to sell my truck and get something better on gas that I can afford to drive (not having a problem paying for the truck btw) but I dont think you have an issue with being able to afford gas. ---

Not like you need to put gas in all 4 at once. + Some of it is just paying to play the game. Id really think 2 cars would be enough but some people want more and therefore have to pay more. Im looking forward to the day where Ive just got my truck because Im just sick of my car. The extra $40 a month for insurance doesnt really bother me and I almost never put gas in it so thats not an issue either. Inspections are $20 or so, again not a huge deal. Registrations got a bit expensive so yeah that does kinda suck now. ---
