So if someone wants to buy my car, I'll tell him to pay me double, because that would make it twice as safe. On May 9, 2017 4:51 PM, "Karl Wittnebel via Mercedes" wrote: > https://phys.org/news/2015-05-heavier-pricier-vehicles-safer.html > >

Might as well book a trip now on a flight to Rio dJ to go retrieve the car, that Miami shipper will have that car in a container by Saturday. --FT On 5/9/17 3:36 PM, Dan Penoff via Mercedes wrote: Karl, I got your email - thanks! I ended up going with a quote for $799.00 from AAA

Re: [MBZ] Car Transporters

Karl, I got your email - thanks! I ended up going with a quote for $799.00 from AAA transporters in Miami. They were very highly rated over a lot of shipments and their DOT reports were nice and clean. They are a broker but they have a “pool” of drivers they work with. Driver is picking the

no, but he was wrong about other things, so I would not worry about it. The OM606 is way better than any v6 IMHO. Dan Penoff via Mercedes May 9, 2017 at 1:52 PM He did? Any idea why? -D ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To

Roger was a moron sometimes. He probably said that because the -06 had the sbc or whatever they call it brake system. I would rather deal with that than a 642 oil cooler leak. Sent from my iPhone > On May 9, 2017, at 1:43 PM, Mitch Haley via Mercedes > wrote: > > >>

Re: [MBZ] Car Transporters

As in when you turn on the lights they’re scurrying all over the place. I used my burner email address last night along with our land line number which we never use. There must have been 20 calls from shippers last night. Was that ever a mistake. The burner address inbox almost got clogged
