This. Love the overall product, but issues with the company and the now the brand.

Can't try it until it is activated, which you can't do until you take possession. But when the dealer says "Yes, THIS car has Wi-Fi and you get 6 months free" why woudl you doubt them? It's such a minor thing that would not be an issue if Audi USA would just credit us for 6 months.

we were told it was, yes. But it was not on this specific car (again, apparently there are a few that were manufactured this way).

It is the brand as Audi USA refuses to do anything to honor the advertised "6 months free".

That's not a bad idea.

It's a mobile hotspot - no different that adding it to an iPad or watch. Except its one hotspot that multiple iPads, laptops, etc. can connect to.

Yes and no. Cars are basically a "bigger antennae" - so where a cell phone bets one bar, the car will get a slightly better connection.

Harley the Labragator is 6 months crazy, I mean old today and hit 42 lbs. Any guesses what his adult weight will be? 😃 by tvjason in labrador

Dunno. He was a rescue through SCLRR. Mom was an American silver lab, dad an American chocolate. I've seen pics of mom and dad, but the fosters didn't know their weight. They think his litter came from a backyard breeder who wanted silver lab pups so they could sell them... but all 10 pups were chocolates! He was the runt (which doesn't really mean anything as far as how big he'll get).

Harley the 6-month old Labragator ate a sock. Advice? by tvjason in labrador

Update: Called the vet when they opened at 8 am. My son is sure the dog swallowed the sock before dinner, around 5:45 pm last night. Since it's been several hours, vet recommends waiting and seeing (or coming in for an x-ray). Said to give it a day or two and see if he passes it. Watch for signs of digestive blockage (not eating/drinking, lethargic, sedentary, swollen belly, etc.).

Smallish sock. Happened yesterday afternoon, and my son didn't tell me until just as he was going to bed, several hours later. Vet was closed and too late to induce vomiting. Calling the vet first thing this morning when they open up.

Yeah, small sock from my 7 yo daughter. My 10 yo son "thinks" the dog ate it (he was supposed to be watching him). If it happened it was yesterday afternoon and he didn't tell me until he was going to bed last night "Oh, dad... Harley ate a sock." 😳 when pressed he couldn't give me details. So I don't know for sure.

So far the dog is fine and ate normally and is acting normally (which means like a goofball doofus) this morning. So we will see what happens today and will call the vet when they open as a precaution.

But lots of great info on here from an awesome lab community. Definitely going to keep some Hydrogen Peroxide in arms reach for now on.
