Re: [MBZ] Happy Easter!

[Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes]

I was thinking yesterday how it is interesting that Easter has kinds mashed up 
this stuff about eggs and rabbits and I am thinking too the vernal equinox 
close by, which are about fertility and birth and rebirth (in the spring) so it 
seems a lot of pagan and Christianity and whatever Roman stuff was going on a 
coupla thousand years ago

Re: [MBZ] Happy Easter! Double Iron Butt

In the month of march, I made two iron butt runs in the 300SDL 
rustbucket, (Al)  Roughly 1025 miles each.It runs great and sounds 
good.


In between I made 2 iron butt runs in the van, but had relief drivers 
for some of those runs.


Today was a 700-800 mile day, but I drive out, but rode back.  #1 
daughter drove the whole trip in the other car.  She did well.


I drove the other SDL almost 400 miles this morning to meet Kaleb. It 
is so smooth and quiet.  Riding back in the 124 is not as smooth. But 
the 124 handles like a race car.  The OM603 in it runs like a dream!


It is nice to have both 126 and 124s with the OM603.  Each type has 
its strengths.


(an iron butt run is at least 1000 miles in a day)

After 5000 miles in 3 weeks along with "normal" driving, I was having 
trouble with TB and DB tonight! (TB= tired butt; sets in around 750 
miles)  (DB(in relation to iron butt) = dead butt; that sets in around 
900 to 1000 miles in some cases.)


MB Diesels with Mechanical Fuel injection are the Best!

 Good Friday approaching and then Easter Sunday. Nice to have a long 
 weekend this time of year. The snow is melting
 and there is hope for spring. Going to have brunch with most of the family 
 on Easter Sunday. Hope you all have a
 good weekend - and MB content - be careful out there. We don't want anyone 
 to lose a car (or worse) this weekend.

Your snow is melting, and we have a possibility of snow on Easter Sunday. 
Grrr
