        now i know that you work for the dealership, do you get to take a car home for like a year then just give it back and get a new one?

          Ack - I don't work for a dealer - I work at corp headquarters.

          I get a new company cars every 4 or 5 weeks. Last one was the GL450 that I met you in. Sometimes I may get a brand new car for the overnight - usually one that isn't out to the public yet.

          But, I usually lease a benz for the wifey too. She has an SLK now.... and the ML is for her

              if only an american company would get smart about deisels I'd be all over that. Drove the deisel liberty at a dealership once. Great little engine, smooth shifting 5 speed. Wasn't a bad car but the seats suck..
              Oah that deisel, it was a MB deisel. :(

              I have been contemplating getting my hands on a 2 door blazer and doing an LSx swap, but part of me would love to do a deisel swap.

                  now i live in FL, so i guess my knowledge about beaters is limited..
                  but from the gist of it,
                  i catch its supposed to be a POS that you dont care about cuz the salt in the snow F's it up...


                  now how does a mercedes fit into this category? lol
