“I’m nuts for sticks”
Doug-2020
#nuts4sticks
Bro I came to the comments to make sure it was mentioned haha sounds like a t-shirt in the making!
Tyler Breedwell that would be a short worth buying
Someone get Teespring on the phone
@@tbreedphoto Logo is in process and shirts and other merch will be coming.
"Volvo maintenance is too much so I'm gonna get an audi." Solid reasoning lmao.
Right Volvo maintenance isn't even bad lol
The older ones are a pain sometimes but somehow still less finicky than the newer ones 🙈
@@jsquared1013 they have weird but easily fixable quirks
And on top of an Audi, he gets a Porsche built Audi
You dint hear the part where it was built by Porsche.
Answer: “E-class wagon!” Oh wait, wrong Doug...
Wrong Doug bought one of these too. czcams.com/video/oV0aOGq2t0s/video.html
Wrong. LP640.
Make the new Gallardo a winter beater ha
Even better. Balboni edition Gallardo
But I thought you were a Land Rover-in-the-snow kind of guy!
Ed, the title made us think of proper winter, not Georgia winter 😉 I’m in Colorado. Lp640 would kill you here in the winter. Been driving 2005 outback XT manual for years and agree with Doug, just saw a RS6 Avant pop up near me with hail damage and a manual 6speed swap. It’s very tempting but high miles. Wagons with turbos are a win in winter! God bless man, love the stories y’all tell. Bring the LP640 to Colorado in summer on some of the mountain highways. Fun and beautiful drivin
Oh you've chosen death... Excelllent choice still 👍
Hey!!! 4:25 im from Costa Rica thats my car😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱 can’t believe its on a video here
Nice car
Broooo a cachete jajajaja pusieron su carro
Finally a story about an Audi!
*ends up being a Porsche in Audi clothes
And an ending that didn't have to do with it getting crushed in a junkyard
John Levine so it’s about the RS2?
First time I have ever heard “sufficiently mediocre “. Great term!
BRUH literally right when i read sufficiently mediocre the guy says it! what are the chances XD
THIS.... title is misleading even though it technically isn't
How is it misleading? Audi RS2 is the ultimate winter sports car.
@@udenszirnis1644 i think he might mean as in the other doug, Doug Demuro
@@udenszirnis1644 Just dropping through to point out that turbo RS are just the worse Focus. Any implication that the RS2 is even close to an S4 or even their domestic competitors is hilarious.
Doug says "The only problem was I could not disable the stability control." Try "The only problem is my PCV Valve is $65"
Joshua B. No, because Doug demuro has never been on this channel and has no ties with this channel so you would have to be stupid to assume it was Doug demuro. Period.
_winter what are you talking about? Audi rs avant cars are easily some of the best winter cars way better than any Ford Focus ever built in any climate and any terrain. Period. And he was talking about a Volkswagen Touareg saying he couldn’t disable traction control, not the rs2 avant. Can you really not keep focus that bad? Listen to what he’s saying before you comment dumb shit. A Ford Focus is shit in the winter compared to ANY Audi avant or mitsubushi evo 4-8. The ultimate winter car is either a Audi avant rs2 as he said, TT rs possibly, or a mitsubushi evo 5, 5.5 or 6. Ford Focus isn’t even in the discussion.
Everytime i see Doug in the title, I automatically assume the video will start with “THISSSS is the....”
This is definitely the kind of car the Papa Doug would buy.
@@beamdriver5 10 months later he has one
Last time I was this early, no business was to be conducted on the sabbath.
or on Continental grounds ;)
@@bsgtrekfan88 Nice one ;)
Doug the type of.... Oh... Nevermind
I see what you did here!
I thought it was Daddy Doug
John Green lol
Lol me to
we all did
How many times has he been on vin wiki?
I can't remember 1 time even
Tabbut is a cool guy but they should really mention his last name in the video title. Everybody is gonna think it’s Daddy Doug.
KR 92 i almost did but I am sufficiently prepared for disappointment
Needless to say, i was a little sad.
This is probably purposely done. MORE CLICKS MORE VIEWS
Or at least reference the Mexican Stig. Was expecting DeMuro
You need to get Doug DEMURO on here
“And then, she proceeded to show me her quirks and features”
*vin wiki music plays*
Man I got the sound in my head and it's totally worth it plz Ed do it
Tabbutt > Demuro
Demuro lives in Southern California and Ed lives in Georgia
They haven’t invented jet airplanes yet...
That Audi wagon is beautiful.
Interesting fact about the RS2 by Porsche: It was not "only" the engineering, Porsche also integrated they Design-Langauge. In the Front, the Turnsignals came straight from a 993 also the Style of the Airintakes in the Front-Bumper. In the Back they integrated the iconic Porsche "Lightstrip" between the Backlights. Just beautiful...
I think the most obvious ultimate winter vehicle is a Toyota echo coupe with summer tires
Lowered wrx on summer tires with a bad alignment.
bmx bike
How about a cavalier with bald all seasons
Escalade with 24” wheels
@@daevid21 That's the most Ohio winter vehicle I've ever heard.
You heard it here first: Wagons are the best
Frederic A. Truslow you mean like my 88 AUDI. 5000 CS. Turbo STICK !!!! Wagon ??? 😎😎😎😎😎🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
i thought it was doug gonna talk about his e63 wagon
Like we needed any more reasons to love Doug... and then we get to know that he imported a RS2 for a winter beater!
lost me at "my grandfather owns this mountain"
How to disable the ESP:
Find the sensor for the steering angle, splice the wire and add a switch.
The sensor is usually in assembled in the steering column with the indicator and wiper levers.
Theres a obd2 dongle that can do it. Forgor what it called is like 60$
But the best part is it can disable automatic start stop
The last time I was this early Ed was the cannonball record holder
What a sentence
" I'm nuts for sticks "
Tummy sticks
That's a good idea for a future VINwiki video, talking about how to import a vehicle from overseas (for those of us who have no clue how to even begin the process), and also the stories/nightmares that goes along with it.
We need a competing Doug score
The Doug Score, the most useless metric since the Schrute Buck.
Eric Zonkheim wrong
Eric Zonkheim What's the ratio of Doug Points to Stanley Nickles?
Eric Zonkheim r/unexpected officw
Dam last time I was this early Doug was chauffeuring prom kids as the mexi stig
"Drive up the mountain" should be the winter car test man.
I have a 97 Avant 280k miles on it. Daily driver, has issues but that car is sure footed in the winter.
Had me at "Piss off the purests". Very cool car and good story. Always wanted to hear someone explain about importing a vehicle like this.
You should actually drive up the mountain again and film it
5:44
SUFFENHAUSEN 🍻
HAHAHAHA
ich kann nicht mehr
Immerhin jemand der Porsche sagt. Und nicht Porsch.
Aber deine Aussprache von ausländischen Orten/Namen ist bestimmt immer zu 100% richtig in der Landessprache.
@@maYdaY1337 Bitte sehe meinen Kommentar nicht als beleidigend an.
Die fehlerhafte Aussprache ist im deutschen einfach nur Lustig, da dadurch eine andere Bedeutung entsteht.
Guten tag!
A fun winter wagon/hatch is the 2016-18 Ford RS on winter tires. You can utilize drift mode. You get 70% RWD, minor nannies, and the nannies can be completely turned off.
Grats on a million+ subs, I literally found Vinwiki at 7k & I've always knew it would blow up.
I love Mr Tabbut's stories!!
Lol they’re some of the worst
RS2 is amazing. Love mine. Imported it over the summer! Silver on black 😊
I know a guy who tows his snowmobile w/trailer to the mountains with his Quattro. It looks out of place sitting next to all the big pickups lol
Doug is right, this is an amazing winter car... actually amazing all year round. I remember my dad taking me and a friend to test drive a Nogaro blue RS2 when they were released back in 94 in Sweden. Found memories for sure. This is a dream car. I'm fortunate to own a 8P RS3 which is closely related, at least from an engine standpoint. That 5 cylinder sound is truly unique!
The RS2 is indeed incredible. Formerly the fastest car from 0-30 for ~20 years. I'm not jealous at all. Noooo
I thought I was the only person who really enjoyed snowy driving. I have been having the best winter driving a $250 2007 Subaru Forrester. Every time it snows I start to giggle cause I know I'm about to have some fun. It drifts great, does nice e-brake slides, and has enough damage from previous owners that I have no concerns about what happens to it.
HAHAHaha....9:55 "...it's very mechanical..." really ? Thank you for not cutting that out !
As someone from Sagamore Hills, OH, with an RS3, I greatly envy that purchase. DAMN.
I hope I run into ya!
I've ran into him twice at lunch after coming across these videos just about a month ago. Sat right next to him hearing him talking about cars, looked over and was like...I swear that's him haha
i love rs4 the old one...the style is something i adore but i cant find it anywhere in my country XD so im stuck with a6 c4 quattro
This winter you could have driven an RS3 all but about 3 days so far, hope he gets some weather worthy of that awesome car. I'm almost thinking with climate change my requirement for AWD will be moot by the time my current Suby dies.
As someone who grew up in NH and now lives in Maine. I find myself often pondering this exact question.
for the price of importing it alone, you could have gotten an AMC Eagle wagon, repair the rust, reupholster the interior, and end up with a station wagon that you could mod up like a Jeep XJ.
LL Bean Subarus were sold everywhere. Remember seeing them at the Subaru dealer in Flagstaff, AZ.
Greg Moser I bought one new in Chicago.....they're still all over the place.....
Absolutely LOVED this episode. Thank you
Never knew about the Porsche heritage with this one. Makes me want it all the more.
i suggest not googling prices though. they are more expensive than used 911s. specially low milage ones.
What car are you waiting to be 25 years old so you can bring it in?
RS4 Avant
B5 RS4 for me too
E46 CSL
996.1 GT3
E46 M3
I got excited bc I thought it was gonna be Doug Demuro but then I realized it was Doug Tabbutt and I got excited
People are saying the title is click bait but I was expecting this Doug
One of my favorite stories. Thanks vinwiki
Even up here in edmonton, people forget how to drive when the first snow falls.
This just confirmed how cool Doug Is
The whole internet thought Doug DeMuro. That means, we need to get him on VinWiki. It can either be very vanilla stories, or be one heck of a guest for VinWiki
No
On the opposite end of the spectrum, _never_ drive an S10 with 2wd and and Iroc wheels & semi slick tires in the snow.
I spun out and hit a guard rail...
...on a straight road.
Did I mention it was my friends truck, and he was sitting next to me? He was _PISSED_ but it was actually fine and was daily driven for a few more years before he finally sold it.
I've got an 06 forester sti. Amazing..
Great car and a great story. I really dig wagons and hatchbacks, and with a manual and AWD, even better. Congrats on the Audi/Porsche!
Very similar to Doug DeMuro’s latest thumbnail, trees in the background and everything lol
This isn't Doug Demuro 🤦♂️
Fr I befoure I clicked on the video I said doug D or Doug T
Thank God, if I hear about his fkn blog one more time......
Good. He's goofy as hell
This is Doug 2.0
Mustang Reyes non, this is the better, drummer Doug. Not the DeMoron!!
Thanks for using it as intended... Great cars that are purpose built should be used to their full extent as intended.
Good for you, driving such an awesome car during quattro season! So happy these are importable now.
2:10 Doug's Mr. Regular voice makes me BROWN.
Congratulations bro, you just made the value of your car go up 200%
@3:00 I went through the same exact process when selecting my most recent car for Colorado. Went with a 2016 Focus RS. It's perfect. AWD, Disable-able nannies, 6-speed manual, hatchback, 350 ponies.
I love my c34 Stagea for winter driving has a 10/90 split awd system and at the push of a button locks it to 50/50 and it also comes with the heart of a Skyline the rb25det with 276hp which basically makes it a Skyline wagon
RS2 the birth place of the wagon, nice choice !
"there's no way to disable traction control"
yeah, I bet if you take out the ABS relay and cut power to it, it'll stop working :p
Came here to say this.
This sounds like a great way to put most new cars into limp mode.
I have been in love with wagons since 1968 when my dad purchased a Mercury. Summer of '69, I was 7 years old, and we traveled from Shreveport, LA to Los Angeles to visit friends and of course Disneyland.
I still love wagons. THIS is the ONLY wagon I would like to own now. I will be paying very close attention.....
"The Windows" in Breck are so fun... Window 6 is where its at. Last time I was there I tried to jump the creek and fell in the icy water lmfao... so fun
There's like 3 L.L. Bean Outbacks in Madison, Wisconsin.
The RS2 is absolutely my favorite car.
Currently building an AAN swapped coupe Quattro.
Doug always has interesting cool stories
Nice review and story..
Oh my god Doug. Audi RS2 is an absolutely legendary car. A magazine did a test in the 90s,the thing is faster to 30mph than a McLaren F1. Yeah, take that bitches.
8:40.... hahaha "...thankful that it hadn't sunk yet..." hahahaha
Just saw this beast on the road in 6 inches of snow. Looking great Doug!!
I have a 1990 Coupe Quattro and they are insane in the snow. Looking forward to doing a 3b swap. 5cylinder sounds are the business!
Now we need a video about the mountain story
Got excited it was the real Doug
I love wagons! I have two. An E30 and an E46. Both manuals, one RWD & one AWD. I’m also nuts for sticks.
"...and just like that I found that car, I took it home without asking anyone" *VINwiki* *intro* *starts* *playing*
Seeing a LGT on a Vinwiki story Omg it's so exciting. I daily one
RS2 is such an awesome car so glad you got it to rip in the snow
I recognize that spot at 5:13! That was at Radwood in Detroit! I had not heard of you guys during that time. It's pretty cool to see that here!
Nice, a Maine boy.
Your right , subarus are awesome in the snow up here. Have had several and they never cease to amaze , even on baldish tires
Doug, you have no idea how happy the Sugarloaf sticker on the Touareg made me
I drove halfway up a snowy mountain in a 94 accord with bald front tires. Lol
Faf Dus what neck of the woods were you in?
Seriously want Daddy Doug to share a story here.
I had an 83 wagon with 4wd high and low, locking hubs. It was like a snowmobile... fellow New Englander 👍👍
Doug, if you wanna Cannonball it, I'd love to roll with ya!
As soon as I read the title, I thought RS2. These cars are great. One of my all time favorites. How much do I hate this guy??? "Hey, let me buy your dream car and use it as my winter beater... Eh, to top it off I'll probably just wreck it while rallying". Doug, for Christ's sake, just take my Audi 200 20VT. I'll take the wagon!
Thank God it's this Doug
Yay! A new Doug video
Quote my Grandpa “the best winter vehicle I ever had was a 1955 Ford F-100 2wd with skinnes up front and 14 wide mud tires on the back.” He told me once it was sitting behind a barn for a month and had 3 foot snow drifts around it fired right up and he put it in 2nd gear dropped the clutch and drove right thru it. I just got it running again after about 40 years last summer and it is awesome
my 07’ jeep commander overland is the best winter car. one of the best 4wd drive systems, front locking diff, good ground clearance, 5.7l hemi, best winter car ever
Note V70R has a fwd bias 90/10, with 50/50 possible if front end loses grip.
yuppp
I was looking for a nogaro RS2 to import some months back. Its very tempting.
Great answer to a great question
Been a crap season for snow this year in maine
Minivans are the MOST underrated vehicles!
2007 Chev Suburban: Fine Sally, doesn't come in manual. BUT: Besides adding super aggressive 33" rubber, completely stock! Have literally been through the interior of Algonquin park in Canada with this beast! Feet and feet of snow without any hesitation! Rear seats removed equals almost a double bed blown up. Go one step further and add a chinese diesel heater= a grand bazaar!
