I kicked & now only check 10 times/day. (Used to be my startup page.)

Having a difficult time getting more cars past the wife. She says to fix our existing (and ONLY) SD first. Guess i should take her up on the offer....I'm off to work on the car.
See ya.

My name is also Nate. I have only owned 2 vehicles...and both were Mercedes diesels

If I ever need another vehicle, it will probably have either a hood star, or two wheels

I love nitty-gritty technical threads, and especially ones with pictures!!

The whole thing started

Being half German,and from Stuttgart,Mercedes is something I'm proud of.Also during the Dallas Days,Bobby drove a w123.I perferred the big w126 JR drove.
The Bobby in me,drives my SD on wvo,but the JR in me adds octane improver to my modded w140.
May we all enjoy our Benz's.
