Re: [MBZ] looking for freebies
BT Wrong! [I figgered woger would try to inflate himself with this topic.] I have a long history and relationship with MB in the USA, whether MBNA or MBUSA. Each stealership is an independent business. I have no relationship with most of them. There is one dealer in CA and one dealer in VA that I will do business with. Every year I buy hundreds or thousands of $$ worth of parts from MB, if directly from dealers or via Rusty. I have purchased just about every major part from dealers including heads, complete short blocks, suspension and lot of body parts. I have had valued friendships with highly placed MBNA folks. This is a decision by MBUSA to cheap out. It has nothing to do with the many independent stealerships that I refuse to give my business to, if by distrust or by distance. The MB Roadside Assistance was a Class program from a company that used to be very classy. Now it is just a gimmick to try to drag unwilling/unsuspecting owners into a stealership to be ripped off. Recall that many on this list have had stealers try to charge 3-4 times list for genuine MB parts. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

That's kind of the impression I got when I read of the service on the back of a recent sales brochure. It was kind of, we'll get you on your way with the really simple stuff, or give you a tow to the dealer. If they pick up the bill for your hotel room one night, I'm guessing most repair bills sufficient to cover that cost, and see them with a bit (or a lot) of money in their pockets. hee hee Again, I have not problem with a company making money, but I'm not sure just how much of a favour roadside assist would really be to me. I'm not sure I could afford the free help.
