Mercedes-Benz is a mere shell of its former self. They’ve joined the other German manufacturers where you fear owning one after the warranty expires because it’s a four-figure bill whenever it goes in the shop. Cost cutting is just going to add to their downward spiral. Maybe they should just build quality cars that…

Guess I’ll buy a high-end Expedition.  That is, if I ever wanted to buy a Ford at this point in time.

Many near me, but BP isn’t Top Tier anymore.  So, hard pass.

The price and mileage are too damn high.

I’ve got Bill Gates’ nano chips floating in my body from those damn vaccines. Now this?

MAGAs think tariffs come out of the exporting nation’s pockets. Of course, Trump and the RWNJ media refuse to tell them how tariffs really work.

Deducting thousands in order to get a few hundred in tax withholdings is a bad deal. Hell, I have family members who think a tax refund is free money given by the government.

Scrap value only.  ND.

I would imagine the only way hydrogen cars will “blow up” is if the tank holds the correct amount of oxygen mixed with the hydrogen.

On occasion, he will (rightfully) turn into a complete asshole when interviewing a failed CEO. He tore Laxman Narasimhan a new one before he got ousted from Starbucks, and Boeing’s infamous Dave Calhoun, while he was gaslighting his shareholders and the public in general.

I watch Cramer every morning just for entertainment value.

What’s with Albuquerque lately?  How about an Aztec from there tomorrow?

Listening to Trump talk is like listening to a 13-year-old girl talk after she drank half of a wine cooler.

I would need to determine the costs to “un-funk” the entire car back to semi-original.  NP if it can be subtracted from the asking price.

How dare you say that about the Goddess!  

Wizard needs to fix the carb, fix the paint, and find those missing interior parts. I need to get a plumber’s license and vastly increase my knowledge in hydraulics.  ND until then.  I would like to drive one of these for a week or two, just to have the experience, though.

Don’t you think a CDL would be required?

2nd Gear: I guess that $60K F-150 will be $180K, and you bet the price of domestically produced automobiles will increase. I recall when Japan put voluntary import limits on their cars in the Eighties, the first thing Detroit did was raise the prices on their shit cars.

Cars from this era are ready for the crusher at 100K miles, and in its 32-year life it had to at one time be driven by someone who beat it like a rented mule.

It looks like roll on truck bed liner.
