All I can tell you is that every dealer says the other cars are worse for repairs.? I've always been lucky but if you watch videos on how these cars are made and the amount of electronics stuffed in every corner, you wonder how they run at all.? I always
thought Audi's all wheel drive- Haldex - was the best out there but most others are using? systems pretty similar now.? My wife loves her RX 350 and it is dependable.? I hate driving it.? I've a friend with a Q7 but he is so rich that he wouldn't remember
which car was in the shop so no help.? Dave

It looks like this thread is hijacked towards cars.?
I am in the market for a car and the new Audi Q7 has very good test reports. Do any of you have experience with Audi that is relevant to their newer cars?
I agree that the low end Mercedes is not what I'd spend for.? I don't use or like half the electronics on any of them and am strictly a buy the large sedan I like to drive the best- and what can be found that is 2 years old, tricked out and under 5K in miles.?
I've had most all of them and like every machine I've owned, it could be better.? Dave
I used to be?really into German cars. I owned?Mostly BMW but also one Audi and one Mercedes. This was ten years ago now. I owned six BMW's in that time all the way from a 318i to a Near new M3.
By far the Mercedes was the biggest piece of crap car i ever owned. For point of refernce i now own a Nissan Frontier and althought the trim is plastic it is a very reliable and well built vehicle.??
Bellow every surface of that Mercedes was plastic. From a engineering perspective the car handled like crap also. If?you know anything about cars and put your head under the hood you would quickly understand why! Everything was bottom of th barrel.?Now
this was a C class but still a Mercedes non the less. I had a Jetta that was by far superior with regard to quality of build regarding both engineeiring and fit and finish.
I would say Felder is like a nice VW imop... Maybe mid range A4?

Interesting.? The Felder configurator won't let you pick the digital cross cut option (#171) if you pick the precision miter option with length compensation (#173):
170 Precision miter unit with pin locating system for outrigger table crosscut fence O 173 Precision mitre guide with cutting length compensation for 1300/1500 outrigger
O 171 Digital flip stop 74¡± (1900 mm), 1 digital flip stop, extendable to 126¡± (3200 mm) for outrigger 1500 O
It looks like you can still get the "pin" option though (#170).
James, which one do you have?
The 173 ()
or the 171 ()
