Bigger you say?

I thought the red lines in the lead picture was showing how it kept blood away from the engine while going through a crowd, but it was about airflow. 

Yeah, I asked how they tested, and they said they pressurized the coolant system and didn’t see any leaks. But the coolant was low, so it had to go somewhere (I don’t think it got hot enough to boil over during the winter). I am worried it is leaking internally, as in your case. I will check the exhaust to see if the…

Tried all of that. I use a different dealer now, but MB said the car had to go back to the same dealer for the second rebuild. It died on a trip out of state and they shipped it back. I contacted MB USA and opened a case. They gave me an extra year on the warranty. We almost qualified for the lemon law but it didn’t…

The dealer was not very helpful. The dealer said he thought I should keep the car because, in his experience, ‘most of these cars have some issue, but once it is taken care of, they’re good cars. So if you get a new car, you will end up having to go through this again.’ I ended up contacting MB USA myself, and they…

Not sure why this is news. The head of admissions for Harvard admitted under oath they did this in the recent discrimination against students of Asian descent case. He said they do it and don’t plan on changing it.

I tried. It didn’t go so well. In the end all I got was an extension on the factory warranty by 1 year with unlimited miles. That was from MB USA, not the dealer.

I think the key is ‘properly rebuilt’ but after the first rebuild they found metal clogging the oil port, after 500 miles, so I doubt it was properly rebuilt. Also, even though we had driven to a different state when it died, MB sent it back to the dealer that rebuilt it in the first place to rebuild again, making me…

It’s complicated, but I looked into it and it didn’t apply in the state I was in. It was close, like if we had the initial problem a little earlier, then it would have applied. 

Sooo..my wifes MB C300 had a notice (not a recall) about problems with the wrist pins 4 months after we bought it. They didn’t tell us that is what it was at first, only an engine component needed to be replaced. We only found out later that they rebuilt the engine. 500 miles later on the interstate, the engine locked…

I’ll see your Aztec and raise you an Avalanche: 

Around me, Sam’s is typically $.50/gallon cheaper for the cheap stuff, up to $1/ gallon cheaper for the 93 octane. Two cars in the family need the expensive gas, so it adds up quickly.

That does sound pretty good. I guess the question is what’s going to happen to the service centers when they shut down the stores?

I guess after working retail, I just imagine people getting the car and being surprised by the flush fitting door handles, where the speedo is on the model 3 or that the model X rear doors open upward. I know they work, but I’ve also seen people bring cars to a chevy dealer because it was making too much noise and not…

Last year, 78% of all Model 3 orders were placed online, rather than in a store, and 82% of customers bought their Model 3 without ever having taken a test drive...Customers are becoming increasingly comfortable making purchases online, and that is especially true for Tesla 

I used to shop at junkyards for totaled cars to fix and drive (it was the way my whole family got their cars for a while). The owner of one of the yards had a theory that wrecked cars are more reliable. His reasoning was that if you buy a used car, for some reason, the previous owner wanted to get rid of that car. If…

It always struck me as odd that the place you learn about democracy and rights is also the place that limits both to the greatest extent. 

Imagine what Europe will have to do.

Not from a flyover place, but hear the term used to describe them all of the time.
