Read his other threads and form your own opinion... but there's an opportunity cost; you'll never get those minutes back.

Um, it's Keyes, not Keys.

Good story! I'll never go to Keys again. Make the trek up to Valencia, a new MB dealership opened up and they are amazing.

And nooooooooow it's time to correct spelling....That's all you got ??? It's pretty evident when someone has nothing to say so they just resort to spelling/grammar corrections. And FWIW, my keyboard is starting to go bad so I have to spellcheck everything...really annoying but I'll make sure to stay on top of it just for you !!!

Can't we all just get along

Not to try and sound like an elitist or anything (if I do, sorry), but one of the reasons I bought a MB was for the prestige, honor, pride, tradition and cool 3-point star.

This forum is a great place for people to create, share and learn new ideas with each other, not a place for people to vent hostility.

The OP and LZH obviously have issues with each other...cool. Take them offline. It underminds the intent of the forums...and while there are those that probably enjoy watching the grudge-match, I would think more are turned off by it. I used to deal with this in STi and 350Z forums...perhaps I was unrealistic thinking it was just the consumer market setting the tone for their forums. I'd like to think I'm wrong on that.

There are real issues/concerns with these cars, and there are plenty of people (me included) that are trying hard to learn as much as we can through this outlet...this sort of thread started off great but digresed drastically.

Just my 2cents...sorry if ill-received or misunderstood. Just wish people would stop head-bashing in here and get to the facts at hand.

It was a joke, dumbkoff. Do you know what a smilie is?

Geez, relax and cool your jets. You corrected somebody for their typo while calling their question "dumbass." So I was just playing your game. Get it? No, obviously not. A low IQ is a tough thing to live with, my apologies to you.

First, in general I've learned that those of us who are trying to make the most out of our cars may run into problems, and that when we run into problems, we have to be willing to change course to get back on track as fast as possible (to include calling on somebody other than the dealer for assistance)

In Josh's case, I've learned that adding too much on top of the drivetrain COULD cause transmission failure, and that if this happens, we may need to think outside of the box to fix it, and be willing to live without our cars for a period of time.

Finally, I've learned that even though most people on here are helpful, some people tend to add very little, and may even subtract from the overall well-being of the forum's intent. I'll let that shoe fit where it may!
