Retired, yes. Pilot, yes. Retired pilot, no. My jobs were off the books.
I'm 6' tall, wear a 34" x 36" pant and weigh 210 lbs. I'm just a fit, normal size guy.

My knees don't bend to 90° thanks to an active life and replacement parts. I drive with my arms straight Italian style.

Sorry to hear about your impairment - sincerely.

You may, however, want to reflect on whether that makes the e Class cramped.

Thanks for your concern. I fit in the E Class just fine with the seat all the way back. I can't afford an S Class or I'd already be driving one.

I asked my wife about her daily shopping. She visits 4 shops each day. They are:
supermarket for dairy & non-edible items;
green grocer for fruits & vegetables;
butcher for meat/seafood;
package store for soft drinks & wine.
You should buy a refrigerator.

I know that folks in Canada don't need a refrigerator or a freezer, but in Florida we do. I have one of each. The fridge is where the dairy, meat & seafood is stored. We shop daily because we only consume fresh food, nothing frozen, jarred or canned.

Good for you! You must be a very healthy specimen. Statistics on longevity by country will show that if you lived in Canada, your life expectancy would increase by three years. Maybe the cold preserves us like meat and vegetables in a refrigerator.

two less doors ?

While I currently have an S550 I will be getting a 2018 E convertible. I have and SL and the S and am tired of keeping two cars and will downsize. Can not justify buying an S cabriolet.

Any idea when the can be ordered here in the states??

Thanks

2017 C Cabriolet
I don't know anything about when the convertible can be ordered. But I have a coupe ordered that arrived in the US last month. However my understanding is that it is still sitting in port and the coupes have not been released for sale/shipment to dealer. Best estimate I have been able to get on delivery is the end of July, maybe.
