That's it in a nutshell. I am not a big fan of the 4.. Don't like the 3 speed AT and the early corrugated MB Tex that seems downright coarse and pedestrian. The W109 300SE L 3.5 from 1971 with leather and burlwood is basically the same car but with air suspension, a luxurious interior and 4

We has some of that here, too. It's a combination of the dry weather and lack of cold nights. Don't know what your weather has been like temp wise, but it has been unusually warm unusually late this here in S. Indiana. Color change in the leave is triggered by cool or cold nights and shorter

Re: [MBZ] OT: security cameras

The DLinks will capture video as well, it’s all a matter of what you choose. You just set them up to send it to am email address and you’re good. You’ve got to have a means of storing or sending the captured stills/video to another place, as the cameras themselves don’t typically have that
