Hello everyone!

I stopped in to see if there was any chance my 2005 C230 had a new owner that had shown up here. I left a note in the car, with just a corner sticking out, up under the CD changer.

I am at 5,600 miles on the Rogue and I'd like to report that it is, indeed, a vehicle that gets me to work, to school, and back home again without fuss. I use the Bose system in the Rogue to drown out my sorrows over the Benz's departure. I miss it - A LOT!

I'm not active on any car forums anymore, not ordering parts online every week, etc.. it's been quite a change.

Hope all is well with you guys!

Haven't seen them show up yet, no. Glad you're getting good use out of your appliance. I'm sure you'll be back in a fun car at some point.

Not much new here except the Romneyettes have lost their minds over on the political forum, as was expected.

That makes me chuckle. I hope the GOP self-destructs.

Hi Matt,

Glad to hear you and your new ride are doing well (at least as far as your ride is concerned, it's at least reliable if not exciting). Of course you can always get another W203! I'll bet there's a low mileage specimen with your name on it!
If you don't touch base here before then, I hope you have a great Thanksgiving and Christmas!

Hi Lilbenz,

Yeah i'm checking back in as well. Looks like lot of the old names are gone.

The rouge's a good car. My co worker got one, it took me while but the styling definitly grows on you over time.
