A lovely car to drive, big and comfortable, economical 30MPG, but let down so badly by poor quality materials.
Now that Mercedes has gotten rid of Chrysler (they have built junk for years),with the Machinist back in charge of producing cars. They will be making cars like the 80s models with the diesels that are still on the road.
Mercedes should build all in Germany, where the people their take pride, and not just a paycheck as they do at other places.
