Fair point, but I think you're talking more like about 12 for that car.

Funny, people do not consider 14-20 mpg poor mileage when talking about a
pickup or SUV that they drive like a car most of the time. It would fit
right in here. I just hope it has a large tank so I don't have to fill up
very often. Does the 560 really take premium?

Re: [MBZ] 560 SEL

[OK Don via Mercedes]

I'm assuming that the 560 version of the M117 has the same intake layout as
the iron block 450 version. If so, it's likely that the myriad rubber hoses
under the top intake housing are all rock hard and leaking badly, which
yields an engine that will barely run, if it starts at all. Those bits were
hard to come by in the early 2000's, don't know about availability now.
Speaking of rubber bits, the vacuum pods that run almost everything inside
the body are likely toast by now as well. Most are rather difficult to
reach 
Other than that, the W126 is a wonderful chassis!
My M117 ws in a 450SLC, and the W126 I had was a 300SDL -- not no direct
experience with the 560 SEL.

With the recent trend on the price of gas, feeding premium to that

Re: [MBZ] More insurance

[Scott Ritchey via Mercedes]

Acorns? Try hickory nuts!  Sounds like a gun shot.  Standing seam metal is 
expensive but 5V much less so.  I put 5V on several out buildings where the 
Metal was screwed to horizontal wood nailers.  The good thing about this is the 
1 inch air gap reduced heat load.  The bad thing is big limbs can (and did) 
punch through.

I put metal roofs on my addition and main house when I built the addition. 
Living in the woods, and hurricanes, I had one branch punch a hole in the 
enclosed porch roof once. That was an absolute pain to deal with. The metal 
deals effectively with that kind of stuff. 

I like the sound of rain on the roof. It’s comforting. Acorns falling on it are 
another thing...

[MBZ] 560 SEL

[Karl Wittnebel via Mercedes]

Is there anything not to like about these old V8 w126 sleds? They must have
their pet mechanical issues, just like all the other old Mercs. There are a
couple near me; one is a 91 two owner California car with ~120k and the
paint and interior look like new in the photos, so it must have lived
inside its whole life. I was thinking 4k might be a fair offer on it if it
is straight with original paint and straight panel gaps, depending upon how
much other stuff it might need e.g. suspension bushings, ball joints yada
yada. How many people on here drive one? I recall Jim maybe has one. What
are the big ticket maintenance issues? Climate control?

Karl

Actually I believe slate is the most expensive form of roof by far but yes, of 
the roofs that people routinely install today, metal is up there in price.

Re: [MBZ] More insurance

[OK Don via Mercedes]

We like it. It's not any louder in the rain (it sits on the wood decking)
though is a little louder in hail. The roof on our main house is steep -
it's a bit harder to walk on now than it was with the composite shingles.
The other roof isn't that steep and is no problem to walk on.
The ins-co gave us a price for composite shingles, and we were able to get
metal within that budget. I don't remember the details ...

Re: [MBZ] More insurance

[Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes]

I put metal roofs on my addition and main house when I built the addition. 
Living in the woods, and hurricanes, I had one branch punch a hole in the 
enclosed porch roof once. That was an absolute pain to deal with. The metal 
deals effectively with that kind of stuff. 

I like the sound of rain on the roof. It’s comforting. Acorns falling on it are 
another thing...

Re: [MBZ] More insurance

You would think it would be cheaper to get a metal roof put on as I 
would think it would be much less labor, but I guess the materials are 
way more expensive.

Frankly if the government is tracking me it's probably a pretty boring job.

less than 1/2 inch groups at 10 meters. Not bad for iron sights...

For me, the second (Moderna) shot was less noticeable than the first.  Didn't 
even sting.
No noticeable aftereffects, beyond a slight muscle soreness.

We went to one of the FEMA operated sites in Tampa. Just what I would expect, 
ran like a well-oiled machine for both shots. Watch out for your second one, a 
number of people I know have gotten slammed with symptoms by the second one. 
Youngest son got his second shot last night and he said he’s wiped out today. I 
felt achy the day after but was fine after that.

Re: [MBZ] OT Home and auto insurance

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

In my case it was a couple of life policies. No problem moving auto policies to 
the best of my knowledge, but that’s been interstate moves. If you’re local 
maybe they won’t let them move stuff around, I don’t know. All I know is that 
when I pulled the plug on my agent I told SF (corporate) that I would cancel my 
life policies before I would let my (old) agent manage them. I told them the 
agent I wanted to handle them and they sent me some forms where I made an 
attestation that I wanted them moved.

Yeah, it was ten years ago, so it’s moot now. I know the agent, who used to be 
a family friend before they screwed us (which kind of doubled up the suckyness 
of the whole situation) got their bag slapped by State Farm. The new guy I went 
to just to service the life policy said that he had never seen a policy taken 
away from the agent who wrote it. He seemed in awe of us because we pulled this 
off. We told State Farm corporate that they either reassigned the policy to an

Re: [MBZ] OT Home and auto insurance

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

you should get in touch with the state insurance regulator, for whatever 
good that might do as the state and inscos all collude (like the 
realtors, and a bunch of the legislators are also probably ins agents), 
at least see what they say.

Re: [MBZ] OT Home and auto insurance

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

I had State Farm for nearly three decades until my agent decided to screw me 
over. Pretty sure I've detailed this here before, but long story short, when we 
returned to Florida from Indiana in 2011 my auto insurance was nearly 
$10k/year. I balked but started paying it. I also started shopping, only to 
find that State Farm, in collusion with my agent, was charging me nearly double 
what it would cost from any other carrier under the guise of “Florida rates 
going up a LOT since you left.”

When I confronted them with competitor’s quotes they were all ready to “put a 
pencil to paper and see what we can do.” I promptly told them that after 30 
years of business I expected the best and lowest price they could offer right 
out of the gate, and since they didn’t give me that, I was bailing. I did, to 
Allstate, and I’ve never looked back.

I went so far as to wrest a life insurance policy away from my former agent and 
have it assigned to another (new) agent I vetted in advance. This is highly 
unusual and takes an edict from corporate, or so I was told. Interestingly, the 
new agent, a nice guy who knows the story and understands my position, hit me 
up for a shot at our auto policies a couple years ago. I told him “OK” and let 
him have at it. He came back and said that my application was refused. He 
didn’t know why, he says they submit stuff to the underwriters and then get a 
response without an explanation.

Guess I pissed them off badly enough they don’t want my business any more. Fine 
by me.
