about chrysler causing mb problems. i see it as mb upgrading chrysler more. i think that mb doesnt want to build simple cars at least to sell here. they are building the simple mercedes like they sell in europe here as chryslers. at least it looks asif that is how it is headed.

i rented the chrysler 300 for christmas break out in vegas. it had a 2.7 engine. it was a little doggy but got over 30 mph driving mostly 80+. the roadholding was very mb like. i drove thruough about 200 miles of a blizzare both sides of flagstaff new mexico. i passed everybody just like i always do in my mercedes in snow. the car never placed a step wrong. just like a mercedes.

i am happy to see what they are building now. i am waiting for the magnum with a mb cdi engine with six speed. i will buy that!
