  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

I took possession of my Telly on Saturday. On the drive home from the dealership, my wife discovered we had an extra rider in the car with us!

Did a little research and it would appear this species is not native to my region of the US. I wadded it up into a paper towel and tossed him in the trash. Hopefully I'm not responsible for an invasive outbreak in Chicago 😅

I wonder if it flew into an open window during the QC drive while still at West Point? Or perhaps during one of the car carrier trailer loads?

Either way, it was pretty fun watching my wife squirm for a good 30 minutes over a dead bug in the cup holder located between the first 2 rows.

I hope the drive was otherwise enjoyable!

Most certainly! Sport mode Saturday was in full effect!! It was tough to resist fiddling with all the settings while driving. I still need to get acquainted with all the extras. My previous car's (base model 2013 Subaru Crosstrek) highest technological advancement was a CD player

Glad you're enjoying the new car! You may want to go easy on Sport mode during the initial engine break-in period, lol!
