Anyway, just a quick appology to those I've crossed with the whole "Mercedes quality" thing. I honestly didn't mean to push any buttons. Was just trying to bounce some issues around. I really do still love Mercedes cars, and do plan on owning another(or several) sometime in the future, if/when the right car comes along at the right time.
Anyway, I'll probably be around here less, unless I see a thread I can make a positive contribution to.
I won't leave this posted forever. I'll delete it later.
