Ridiculous much! Call it what you want. Men's Mall I've heard it called as well. I'm a self respecting MB Owner and I go to the junkyards. It's all used parts that are worthless to their previous owner.
You'll never find a brand new M-pump, and even if you could it would cost you several suitcases full of cash. I found one at the junkyard for
$10.
90% of the wrecking yards I've been to are far from green. They may be reselling parts and recycling the cars, but with all the fluid and oil slicks that are on the ground, I think that it wouldn't qualify them as green.
