Just flat tow it with someone slightly stepping on the brake pedal for regen.
Neighbor got a new Allroad last week. He had a mobile detailer come over last weekend, which seems strange for a new car. He has since then washed the car every day. Yesterday he spent a good 6 hours waxing and polishing it. Today he has already spent two hours washing it again. Not sure he has even driven it. OCD off the charts.

No idea, seems like a path to disappointment. His previous car has been stolen twice and hit multiple times right in front of his house. Not to mention our disintegrating roads. Windshield got cracked today when the car in front of me hit a recently repaired pothole where the repair is already crumbling. This is one of the many bridges we have were you mostly drive on exposed rebar. I am sure the salt in winter is good for it.How does one care that much, while having to street park it?

Probably more of the same. Engineering is expensive, reverse engineering less so.

The way the seats fold on the new ID.Buzz is suboptimal. It's built like an SUV, not a minivan.
