In the city, I realized keeping up with modern gassers in the 300SDL is possible but pointless, I'll have to use heavy throttle to keep up. Which just wastes fuel, so now I drive SLOOOW. I mean I end up right behind them regardless.

I don't think a big cushy Mercedes should driven like a zippy beater box anyhow.
