Yup, it's true but the dealership fleet manager I was talking to was telling me that he thinks it wouldnt last because for sure a lot of customers will complain and they would want to match what other car manufacturers are offering.

Yeah, I heard the same thing from a MB dealer 2 weekends ago. That's tought to swallow. Ever since I've been buying Benz's, I always have bought new keeping them until factory warranty expiration. The net result is that I haven't paid a cent out-of-pocket. That was nice! Now, that's going away! A shame!

Yep, imagine our shock when the finance guy told us that during our closing a couple weeks ago. I thought that what these "luxury" car guys were all about. This is bad news for MB business if Lexus, Infiniti, etc. continue their maintenance programs. We were definitely pizzed. But we still bought the car.

Thats really sad!! we have a 2004 clk55, my wife loves it so much and needs a new car so we ordered a pewter 2005 clk55. funny how the salesman didn't mention we would have to pay for maintance! anyway how are you enjoying the 2005? what are some of the changes vrs. the 2004?
thanks mark
