Sweet! You've still got a lot of life left in it. Fix the door handle. It's not hard. Then enjoy the low cost of ownership.

Cars are all about bragging, basically. It's what most people overspend on.

lol. The "humblebrag" comment is in reference to just so happening to take pic

Well, when they deliver a car, I think that's usually where they leave it.

I don't have a problem with it, just explaining his comment

Maybe upgrade your awning on the second floor before buying a new car next time.

Seriously, I'd be kind of embarrassed to show that publicly.

Next time it rains, you might want to roll up the window.

You in Washington?

Yeah

HawkCat

Thought so. Those trees and the home style looked really familiar.

Looks like you needed shingles more than a new car😛

Getting those too right now with a 5 year cert. See why I didn't buy new?!

Nice work...one of my favs. I drive a 15 year old Corolla with nearly 200K miles

Honest question, why the "green" car bias?

byu1

5/23/15 10:37am

Actually the Tesla doesn't make sense from a cost of ownership standpoint

HawkCat

Do the new Merc turbo diesels last as long as the old ones?

byu1

5/23/15 11:03am

That remains to be seen, but European repair data points to that.

HawkCat

5/23/15 11:37am

Btw, the styling of the new Merc's are a step up

byu1

I like the side mirrors

Great looking car! I picked up my mid-life car purchase yesterday in Munich.

Fun! That is a tease though, isn't it?

HawkCat

Not a tease, doing the European delivery.

Nice ride. Well done.
