Hey, exactly the same I did in my apprenticeship! Only a few years earlier (1988 in my case).

Spaniard here. Definitely negotiated IP terms for my current contract :-)

I've done it at least twice with my Thinkpad T495. Bootable USB with El Torito format, if I remember it correctly. Using Lenovo official ISO images and instructions, etc.

Well, my 7 years old Mercedes A 180 CDI 2012 model (Diesel engine) averages 53 mpg (4.4 l/100Km) still today (see my old comment with all the details for the these numbers at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14552816). The manufacturer-supplied official numbers are even better (3.3 to 3.6 l/100Km, or about 65 to 71 mpg).
NB: the above mpg numbers are computed using US gallons (3.785 litres)

Don't know the specifics of the Audi Q7 of the OP, but my Mercedes A 180 CDI 2012 model (Diesel engine) averages 53 mpg (4.4 l/100Km) for my conmute trip (35 KM total, including ~8 KM of mountain road, with a 300m elevation change). Given that my A180 has a 50 liter (13.21 US gallons) fuel tank according to the manufacturer, that means I could make up to ~1,100 Km with a single tank. In practice I refuel before that, but routinely make ~900 Km between refuels.
