Every day you drive to work alone, shop grocery alone. So if you go on camping for travel, rent big car. Why do you want to spend $30-50k for that? Save and invest the rest and rent whatever you want, whenever you want for whatever purpose you want. It is all unhinged auto industry propaganda particularly in North America.

Thank you for this video. I have just replaced the bungees on the back of the front seats of my 300CE. The technique and sequence required to get the back of the seat off is not intuitive. I would have been reluctant to use the amount of force if you hadn't shown how it is done. Great video!!

Yeah hey dumbasses when you change the tandem pump in an S600 with the ABC you have to put the computer the star tool for Mercedes or the equivalent and you do a rodeo and that's what it's called. It purchased the air from the entire hydraulic system. It goes up all four corners goes down Each corner will go up and down it doesn't for about 15 minutes or so maybe before you do a video you are to do your research so you don't look like a bunch of dumb fucks

Apart from speed bumps, potholes and cross winds, there is nothing I can think of that I dislike about my Smart Fortwo 71bhp with the Passion trim. For what it is, it’s an exceptional bargain and an excellent car. It’s not as large, refined or comfortable as my E-Class estates were, but it’s a very balanced compromise. They are ideal as temporary, second/third cars or as an urban car.
