Re: [MBZ] One or Two for Mr. Snook, Esq

WOW That 300SDL is nice. But 405K miles? Wow. I don't think that would get better than 25 mpg. Right? It is nice. I am lusting in my heart for the Green 240D. My trip is 65 miles and I'm guessing it might take 15 to get up to 80MPH. Or will one these actually go that fast? It would get

[MBZ] Two Questions

With my new job, I have a 130 mile commute (that's round trip) for work. I am going to put my house up for sale and move to the new town. But, that could take a while. I'm considering finding another car that gets better mileage. My current BMW gets 23 mpg. (the speed limit on the interstate

[MBZ] Possible Project?

Haven't been on the digest in a while. I started my new job last month and have been pretty busy. This wagon looks interesting. But, I'm a little afraid of the 4-Matic not working. Also, it says it stalls at Idle. Any ideas? Is this a money pit project or is a possible easy fix on the

Re: [MBZ] Road Trip

When I had that car, I could get 32 mpg pretty easily. On one trip where I tried to keep it at 70 mph for long stretches, I got as high as 33. Don Snook -Original Message- From: Craig [mailto:diese...@pisquared.net] Sent: Friday, September 01, 2017 11:02 PM To: Mercedes Discussion

[MBZ] Next step for Craig's Vehicle Evolution

[MBZ] OT: moving to a small town

I have decided to take a position at a firm rather than keep my own practice going. So, I will moving from Wichita (a fairly large city) to McPherson Kansas (about 15,000 population). I didn't one interesting thing. My office is on main street right by the Courthouse. It is a typical small

Re: [MBZ] Speaking of movies

It is fantastic. The scope of the filming is spectacular. It immediately makes the viewer feel the desolation and in typical Kubrik fashion, it is creepy, scary, and lonely at the same time. BUT, I think the most amazing opening sequence is Saving Private Ryan. Don Snook -Original

That is what I have always done. Mostly because it was one of the few things that would set my mother off. So, I developed a habit of not washing them (in the dishwasher). BUT, I never knew the reason. Don Snook -Original Message- From: Curley McLain [mailto:126die...@gmail.com]
