A lot of companies now are requesting on you giving a 10 rating on customer
satisfaction cards-e.g Hilton. Also one MB dealer here- www.viti.com asks
you to talk to them if you can't give them a perfect rating rather than turn

if the leather starts to shed color? Anybody have any ideas? (Short of
liposuction on right thigh or new wheel? My 123 does not do this as it is

I wondered what might have been on it-no DEET since I have had it- only #2
greasy hands.
I wonder if leatherique or something like that would seal it?

On many/most of the FLW buildings the roofs leaked, etc. E.g Wingspread in
Racine WI that was built for the Johnson (Wax) family.

I think it is more than a suggestion-from what I understand it is a fairly
established fact. And they leaked early on-Wingspread leaked right after it
was built.

Some of the problem seems to be that shallow pitch or flat roof designs as
well as materials. But I am not an architect.

Dan,
I would recommend a Subaru forester-esp. If you have use for AWD. I just
sold one last fall with 100K miles for $5K. Had bought it new in 2001-no
trouble at all-did Jack & Beanstalk trade-my wife wanted a used SAAB
convertible.

Well if you want it I can go look at it-how can I tell if it really is
armored? I know-if it doesn't shatter at 50 yards?
Aren't most 140's for sale on CL the armored glass variety? Is the lorinser

I already told him he could store it here-about an hour & 1/2 away. My wife
likes that idea-means it covers up a driveway space that I might otherwise

Yes-ditto. It's both SMG as Tom wrote and total cost-I don't keep cost per
mile records like Curt but I drive both my MB's with a SE grin and spend a
lot less than I used to with car payments, etc on my new Subaru-which was a
very economical car.
