An Unreliable Sh*tbox
by JannRickles July 16, 2021
The Audi Allroad can best be described as a Subaru Outback that went to Choate. It, like the Volvo Cross Country and Mercedes E-Class Wagon, has long been a favorite of the country's wealthiest families, and can frequently be spotted with a bunch of college bumper stickers and lax sticks strewn throughout the trunk. If the Volvo Cross Country is more New Haven and the E-Class Wagon is more Georgetown, the Audi Allroad is more Ann Arbor; still sophisticated, with that subtly-intelligent college-town prep vibe, but maybe not as quintessential as say, New Haven or Georgetown. Unfortunately, after the dumpster fire that was the first Allroad back in the early aughts, Audi's Stealth Wealth Wagon became associated with questionable reliability, but shhh, no one needs to remember that. The Allroad is far more sophisticated than a normal Audi sedan. A4s and A6s are everywhere, but Allroads are a rare, rare breed.
