Biggest biodiesel MB taxi fleet in USA W140/W210
 
Not in the best condition, but quite a few of them, a few of them gas.
The taxis in USA are vomit comets, but at least, these guys are on the bandwagen
Working at LAX (somthing wrong with the tail lights, but has MB Dealer plate "Beverly Hills Ltd." on it):

You can see that at all major European airports as you leave the door :)

very corageous.... I wonder how many check engine/abs/srs lights are on.... in my experience, cabbies don't like spending money on their cars....
