Howdy from Michigan

Hi, I`m Todd and I recently purchased a 2016 Audi SQ5 and I am excited out learning new techniques and using new products to keep my vehicle looking its best. I have been a long time car guy and find it very satisfying when I detail my vehicle and it also makes it look amazing. Hope to learn a lot here.

Thanks, I fell in love with it when I first saw it. I find myself looking back at it every time I walk away!

Arlington Tx. Had enough of the 6 month long winters. I actually lived in Portage. A lot of people not familiar with the area don`t know Portage. My in laws live in Battle Creek. I worked at Discount Tire on Columbia for a couple years back in the 80`s.

We were up there this summer. Not many places nicer than Michigan in the summer! I guess you`ve had an opportunity to see how the vehicle does in the snow. Y`all got hammered in the last week or so from what I understand.

Yes, the vehicle is amazing in the snow now that I have my winter shoes on. The summer Pirelli P Zero`s were terrible in the snow. We have about 16" on the ground, as I am sure your in-laws have told you.
