I get a real laugh out of the people who will never buy an american made car, but spend hours and thousands of dollars repairing their $500 Mercedes.
I am on my third mercedes and looked at countless others, none of them junker's, and you can bet one or more of the same problems; cruise not working, climate control not working, injector pump leaking, air not working, motor mounts, etc,etc,etc.
Can't remember having so much go wrong with an american built car and I owned many of them.
