My advice:

1. Depress accelerator pedal til it contacts carpeting.
2. Maintain throttle to carpet application and merge into left lane.
3. Continue carpet contact to maintain smoke screen effect behind vehicle.
4. Fellow motorists will rush to remove themselves from your path - F350 Duallies included.

Oh, can we not seriously be more optimistic! To tell a fellow Merc owner to destroy a great German automobile for the fact of a few cosmetic issues...isnt that what this forum would disapprove of? Perhaps I brought offense to Toyota owners out there but I digress...I have to keep in mind that Toyota has its own forum, and this is not it. I appreciate all the tips that some have left for me. Searching sometimes yields a headache and furthermore, fresh new threads attract more people to share ideas they have in a free and open manner! I may be considered lazy, but I am new and when I do have my own tips, I glady share.

Now that's a little extreme. There are thousands of Corollas on the road now with well over 150K on them. There is a reason they are the best selling car on the planet. Cheap and reliable, not to mention 40 MPG.

If they don't make it 150K, as with most cars honestly, it's the owner (Heck, a guy in a Chevy truck just broke a million miles a week or so ago). I would think that people take care of a Benz better than they would a Toyota.
