Hertz offers Mercedes in many areas, but not Orlando. All I could get is a Volvo.

i am going to try and bring a friend along and give him a taste of vintage MB.I talked to him about the simplicity of my 240d and I think I got him to bite.Hopefully I can bring another newbie along with his SDL so there wont be too many bellybuttons(w 123,which i dont mind,but some want to see variety,as l long as it has a diesel in it,i am intersted.)near the pool,also known as lake mercedes and the shop.

Was thinking we could give out some awards or maybe give some kind of incentives to show up with an MB automobile next time.How about crazylist advertising on a shirt.for example,great selling descriptions such as"ran when parked" or "just broken in"or "run forever"

I'll be returning to Ohio from Miami that weekend, so this could fit right in. Most likely I'll be bringing a 420SEL. The other option is a 240D, but I'm not sure I want to drive that thing all the way to Florida and back. It's a great car, but kinda busy at 70 mph.

Hope to see you all then!

Anyone interested in a set of Bilstein HD rear shocks? Brand new in box, only opened to see that they were rears and that I can't use them

If any of you are interested let me know, I'll bring them to the GTG.
