it's faster than the TD. it suffers the usual mercedes straight six

About 2-3 grand more than a sedan.
300TD's are getting very rare, mostly 230TE's and a few 280TE's.
People are just not selling them.

Cause we don't talk about hardly anything that is new, and when we do,
we gripe about it (new labels on Mobil 1).
I've found Vista to be lacking critical HW drivers for HP Tablet PCs,
