Gotta admit, he does have a point. I wouldn't think of taking a benz to a dealer. And he's right about all the gadgets and buttons. Bunch of hoohaa as I like to say.

Don't get me wrong, I love Mercedes Benz, but they are definitely not for the average consumer. And I'll bet the majority of their new cars go out as a lease.

The guy is a bit of a spode, no?
