Re: [MBZ] Got my buck for the season
Same thing but heavy fog and I wasn't driving very fast. Young buck stepped out in front of car and impacted grill squarely. Grill, radiator, A/C condenser, etc. destroyed. Most of car heavily splattered with blood and feces. If it had jumped, or if it had been a large deer, the impact zone would have been the windshield. I was very lucky but irritated since I had to limp home instead of fishing that night. Before I left the scene of the accident a member of a private hunt club stopped and asked for the deer, so someone benefitted. Gerry > No damage, a very close miss.

Re: [MBZ] ***SPAM*** Re: ***SPAM*** Re: Got my buck for the season
Reminds me of a Pat McManus (outdoor sports humorist) story about hunting with his cousin Buck because Buck, though an idiot, was old enough to drive and Pat wasn't. Buck would see a 3 week old hoofprint and say 'look Pat, deer sign'. Pat would spot a steaming pile of poo and Buck would derisively say 'you can't eat sign'. So one day, Pat dumps a box of milk duds on the ground. "hey Buck, deer sign". Buck gives his customary dismissal, so Pat picks a couple nuggets off the ground, tosses them up, and catches them in his mouth. And of course when Buck figured out what Pat did, he gave him a good thumping on the head for it.

[MBZ] 2004 MB E320 4matic "Visit Workshop" RED Battery Warning Message
Hi All, I have used my 2004 E320 w/89K sparingly for 5 years (1K per year) and replaced both primary and secondary batteries 5 years ago. I keep the car garaged and hooked up to a Battery Tender charger on the primary battery in the trunk. Yesterday I went for a ride and the red "Visit Workshop" Battery Warning Message came on. I tested the electrical system at the primary battery with the following results 100% charge, capacity test passed, cranking test passed and charging system passed. How could I test the secondary battery? Research showed that with this warning on some electrical systems shut down such as the dash light at night which it did.

Re: [MBZ] 1978 W116 280SE on BAT
One wonders if the bigger issue relates to all of the comments about how sluggish the car is and the references to poor fuel economy. Not a wonderful vehicle, in need of some work, but the price seems very reasonable compared to some recent sales on BAT for old MB.
