Wait so they can just remotely disable it? Or is the “stop drive” more of a recommendation and not a requirement?

Mercedes recommended to not drive over safety issues.. don’t get all controversial nowww😭😭

It’s homologation. Meaning they didn’t get full approval on the car as yet. This doesn’t mean anything is wrong with the car. It’s just a regulatory process required for each year and each new model. Sometimes it takes longer than expected

Ask us.

Seen 0 videos of giving back to communities. Not talking about donating to charity’s for tax write offs. Maybe walk down the street handing out food to the many homeless in Ohio. Give some money to the family’s working every day instead of helping their children grow because they have to supply food and can’t be there for the family. Door to door and pay someone’s rent. Not in Delaware go to a community where there are actually people in need.

You sound offended I said do stuff for the poor when I didn’t say you don’t do anything I just said think about the people you walk past on the road who make less in a year than you have in a day.

[@TheTripleFCollection]

Now you want to put on us exactly what you would do? We can’t do it in Delaware, we can’t give to charities. The audacity of people to think they can tell other people exactly what to do and how to do is beyond me. We’ve done exactly that. We’ve given more than 100 million to build shelters overseas for orphans, grant wishes to children, build churches and schools. I can all but guarantee our positive impact on this world and children is a million fold what you’ve done. We don’t do videos on most of it that’s not car related bc it’s in bad taste to do so. Go help where YOU can help and make a difference. Stop telling other people what to do with THEIR resources on a KZbin comment with no knowledge of shit before doing so. It’s so ridiculous it’s comical!! 😂😂😂

Glad to hear you do what you can for third world countries. Wasn’t here to argue just to say help every day. You got offended and had to ego argue to prove your point on what you’ve done for this world. Take some reference from ThatWasEpic. Also kinda hypocritical to tell me what to do as you’re getting offended by me recommending you what to do. But whatever wasn’t here to argue so won’t keep going on.
