Damn fine vehicle
A solid, roomy dead-reliable auto. Nothing fancy inside, but I don't care. It has a spacious trunk, plenty of footroom (I'm 6'3") and is quiet, yet powerful (6-cylinder model). It has over 200,000 miles on it, yet no squeaks or rattles nor any major engine service required. Only three complaints: 1. steering needs to be re-engineered -- doesn't turn sharply enough; 2. tapeplayer in console went kaput (I know - who the hell plays tape these days; well I do, at least in my MB, which doesn't play discs); 3. driver's seat frame somehow got bent and will not move fully forward, but costs too much to replace, so to hell with it; my wife uses a pillow). This model has been described by mechanics as like a tank in durability and reliability and we will likely never trade it in.
