They also had one of their employees drop me off at work because I worked close by and I would have had to wait 20 minutes for the shuttle bus.

I dropped it off to get a front end alignment (I put new tie rods on this weekend) and to get the transmission fluid flushed. They said the flush would run between $125-150 depending on parts and the alignment would be $119. So how did I do on price? I figure the price on the flush was about right but I didn't know about the alignment.

Two of the Mercedes dealers here charge $95 and $99 for alignments.
