Anyone want to play? You know you own too many MBs when... - Page 3 - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

When your friends start speculating in which of the MB trunks all the money is hidden or ...
... a remote relative asks you for your MB as a wedding gift, when you kindly reply: "Which one ...?"

heck, I only have 5 right now. I'm just getting started. Now if I can find just the right 108......and then I gotta have a 129 (heck, wife even approved that purchase!)

False assumption... You can NEVER have too many Mercedes Benzes

pawoSD · #35 03-24-2009, 02:47 PM

When all the parts guys (and mechanic/service advisers) at the local MB dealer know you by name.

(they all know me!)

Now here's a good one:

-When you can actually attribute weight gain to eating too many cookies in the dealer's waiting room.

I firmly believe you can never have too many MB's. As soon as I get a job I am going to find/add another.....I am lusting to have a 240D around for some reason, I just think it'd be cool.

When you need to sell one in order to get the next one.

When VPs, Dr.'s and Lawyers ask you to take a look at their MB...it's making a funny noise

When you buy a cheap car to take the beating of daily driving and the elements just so your MB is safe in the climate controlled garage.

$150/year insurance on the MB doesn't hurt, either.

When your beater is a Mercedes Benz.

how about when you can't remember the number of cars off the top of your head and/or when you have to BUY your own rollback truck to haul them around

When you post photos that get confused for a get together, and when you line up all the cars you've ever owned for a photo, other cars pull into the parking lot to look at them.

^True story. I was there.

Norm looks fantastic in pictures, it's quite awesome.

-You get yelled at by the neighbors when you have 12+ Mercedes on the front lawn ranging from C220 to CL600. Oh and every car is black. I tell them the family is over but they just shake their heads.
-When you go to the shop and you know the service writer first name and last, where he lives, what he drives, his relationship status and some facts about him.
-When almost everything no matter what it is or where the place is. You somehow end up bringing Mercedes-Benz into a conversation.
-Not matter what TV program you are watching and a Mercedes commercial comes on you tell everyone in the room to shut the heck up.

Also you know you own too many when: Your friend or family member says "I need a new car. I am thinking Honda, Ford or Toyota" and all you know how to respond is" Well for an SUV that GLK 350 is nice. For a sedan the E320 is great and for a coupe the CL550 is perfect"
