By the way, I did send the editors a letter. Let's see if they respond.

I hate the way too many of these supposedly expert car reviewers do their reviews.

I was reading the paper the other day. Some supposed "techno-guru" was rating the latest ML350. As if we are not *** familiar with the ML!!! Get this - he claimed it had a 4 speed auto!!!!! He was actually comparing to Ford Explorer and found them comparable, except the Merc was of course, more expensive. Well at least they both had 4 speed automatics…right?

Another article I had read, compared the C to the 3. Of course the 3 came out way on top. The reviewer had a website called straight-six.com!!!!

I don't think most of these people know anymore than you or I.

...which is why I only pay attention to the reviews written by Edmunds.
