Gotta admit some of the photoshops are pretty funny, tho...

Unsophisticated?

Do all Benz owners smack people, or just you?

Does the quality of your response (Negative) manifest itself from the car you drive?

;D

I don't know whether all 'Benz owners smack people or not... I haven't met all of them. :D

As for the quality... unfortunately, as of late, to an extent, yes. The newer (post-1997 or so) Mercedes are not up to the same standards as the ones before them were. The top-of-the line models (S, SL, CL) are close, but they still aren't quite as well made as they once were.

So, you're saying that they've slipped slightly to a Trabant, down from a Yugo?

Actually thrax, (yes, I know you were kidding)

Mercedes are used as taxis in just about every country in the world except the U.S., and possibly Canada & Mexico as well (don't know for sure).

The rest of the world gets the cheap models; the Mercedes we get over here are only the top 1/3 or so of each series; the cheapest E class we get is the E320, with a 3.2L V6; elsewhere, you can get an E200 (2.0L 4cyl).

They're used as taxis because they're comfortable to sit in for 8hrs a day, and they're like the Energizer bunny... they just keep going, and going, and going, and going... :D

Why is it that I say it at post #7, and Mr_Bojingles comes in at post 13, and says it again, but with the pic, and he gets all the credit?

Are your memories that bad? :D

:D A picture is worth 1000 words...You only had 10 words.

1000/10=100 So using that simple math equation I determined that the picture has 100 times more content then your statement.

Thus the reason I got the credit :p (please, someone correct me if I am wrong here)

I guess it would also cost more to import them.

Not a chance, unless you are willing to pay a $50.00 fare for a 1 block trip.

The Caprice & Impala are our Taxi's :D

Thought so. Same thing here. Except for a Buick taxi I was in in Chicago a few years ago... it had 900,000+ miles on it, and it looked brand new. The guy obviously took extremely good care of it.

There was an article in The Star (MB Club of America's magazine) a while ago about a Taxi driver in New York that had always wanted a Mercedes taxi, so he bought himself an E320 Diesel and had it turned into a taxi...

I've seen Camrys are taxis and a few S70s. Usually, they are Caprices, Impalas (both FWD and RWD), Crown Vics, and the odd Buick Regal. I even once saw a Toyota Echo as a taxi :eek2:. I saw that during the transit strike a few years ago.

Here in Brooklyn we don't really have taxis we use car service a lot more. 95% of car services cars are Lincoln town cars

Ouch poor car. No car regardless of brands deserve that. Maybe mercedes but no other respectible brands like Volvo. :D

All I'm going to say is that there's nothing wrong with Volvo.
