SWMBO had ruled out Merkun iron, according to Clay. So it'd have to be a toada tundra: Much less "truck" for much more money. Otherwise, the heavy half or 3/4 ton peekup, ta hoe or suburban hoe types are good choices. Although the F250 has AK cred. tyee165 via Mercedes

I still have the SDL. I gave it rattle can two years ago as a quick and dirty. Since it remains running well, I would replace the poor quality sheet metal with better at $25 a pop. Paint booth rental is all of $160 for a weekend. Much simpler to have the old stuff go away and bolt on the pre

The W220 was not bottom fed. That really sealed the fate of the Star Cars in her mind. NO Benz is good in her eyes. The w124 was too “snooty” for her, and repair costs on that 15 year old car were not “fiscally responsible”. My vote would be to put a low miles 617 in the SD at less than one y

Re: [MBZ] If not the SD....

I would offer that the early Odyssey vans had a problem making the transmissions unreliable and subject to early death at less than 100k miles, so approach those with caution. I think the Pilot's could be decent. Friends have one, they like it. No idea how it rides. Consider the Honda Element,
