Thumbs up Just a great car

Just wanted to check-in with the board at the 65,000 mile mark. my 2008 C350 has been completely trouble free and a pleasure to own and drive .

Not sure if this helps but I rarely drive the car less than fifteen miles after starting her up, and on the days when I only have a short trip (under a mile or so) I usually turn this into a four miler or until I see the oil reach temperature . That may be a total waste of time and fuel, but I enjoy every minute in this car so it's fun for me. Are there any thoughts re getting the car up to temp?

PS. This was meant to be a short term car!

My wife's 08 C350 just rolled over 62K. Other than a stuttering sunroof when closing and recently discovered melting taillight harness (like in so many others...), it has been trouble free.

The first owner only had the battery replaced at 4xK miles and a couple of tires put on, but that's it.
