Audi Q5 Real-World Dog Test: Muddy Paws + White Interior (Can It Survive?)

A rain-soaked, muddy-paw reality check on whether the Audi Q5 is actually livable with big dogs—especially with a light interior. I load in a 134-pound Labrador and put the Q5 through the stuff brochures skip: access, stability, flat-fold space, wipe-down materials, and how calm the cabin stays when your dog isn’t.

In a world chasing bigger screens and louder tech, the new S-Class goes the other way. Smarter lighting, calmer software, a truly usable rear seat, and a ride designed to reduce stress—not add it. This isn’t about hype or headlines. It’s about living with a flagship sedan every day and understanding why the S-Class still matters in an SUV-obsessed world.

The 2026 Honda Pilot isn’t chasing attention — it’s chasing trust. In this review, Nik Miles tests real-world comfort, visibility, quietness, driver assists that don’t nag, a usable third row, and cargo space that actually works for family life (and dogs). If you want a family SUV that lowers stress instead of adding to it, start here.

Layover Due
byNik Miles

Marconi fully commits to the chaos by cutting even more isolated clips of Nik and Trish just to play them wildly out of context. Nik is bravely adjusting to “freezing” temps in the 20s and announces he has officially entered thermal underwear season, while Marconi checks in from Chicago at a casual 8 degrees and is absolutely not impressed. Plus, a full round of your questions in Ask Test Miles and a breakdown of the latest automotive news headlines, with the usual side of chaos. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
