Would have to agree with Ken. I consider myself very fortunate to be the owner of three Benzes at the same time. I love all three and use the TE for the daily driver. My wife only puts around 5 to 6 K a year on the 400,,, my old car,,, and I put around 5 to 6K on the wagon. The SL might get the most use, as I drive it when the weather gets better and put it away in November or so. I don't like driving the SL when bad weather threatens, and use a car cover at work to keep the UV's from getting to it. The Ram pickup does an excellent job of hauling whatever.
