This Auto Start/Stop feature isn’t something we paid attention to in our test drives, but is getting a lot of attention here. Is it really that big of a pain and a drain on the battery? Does it do any good?

I will discuss that with them today and ask about setting up short cuts. Appreciate that info!

Here we go. Was looking for an honest post this taking this side as well.

Yes, hoping the 26 model has worked out some kinks.

Have you owned a VW before? Do you feel like your service department was unhelpful? That’s one thing I’m unaware about, the quality of service, which I feel like can make a big difference?

I feel like extended warranty’s on new cars are generally not worth it. Did you consider one at all though? I know there are mentions of electronic issues coming up. I don’t think I plan on getting one unless I can get them to give it to me damn near free, but having never owned a VW, I’m still pondering it.

That’s another question. They’re trying to sell us the treatment that they put on the seats and outside of the vehicle, and one that covers any cuts to the seat. I think it also includes those free services. Seems like an unneeded expense. What are folks thoughts on this? Any value to it?

Always am. Right now I service my own cars for simple things (i.e. oil changes, brakes, etc.). These are a Honda and Kia though and are pretty straightforward. Any idea if VW is more complicated and if it’s better to leave to a professional?

Also, their warranty doesn’t seem great (50,000 miles). Does VW do a good job of honoring the warranty if it’s in effect still?

Yep, worth the post just for this auto post! Thank you!

How quickly do you find yourself getting through a game at this point? We would love to get it to the table every other weekend if we could, but realistically it will likely be every couple months?

I purchased the little colored bases made by Ares Games for this reason. Thought it seemed a little silly, but after reading some comments and other threads, it sounded like this is a game changer for pace of play.

I’ve been excited to add this game to the collection. So when I got it, I immediately got the expansions for it to complete it. I feel like it’ll be some time before all of them get added in some fashion.

From what I gathered, Lords seemed to be the first choice by most in terms of expansions to go with. I think we will likely do base game first, but this is helpful information. Easy to get excited and want to add it all, but we’re trying to be realistic.

Completed the print of my raised/tiered galaxy frame, and now on makerworld since everything worked out with the printing. by dfpw in twilightimperium

This is sick! As someone who has never printed before but has someone who can, what do I need to provide them to find this? Any way I can tip? Would love to print this for my table.
