Mercedes has gotten lazy

Was on the MB website today looking at different options and found this. Wow.

I must be missing something. What's your point?

Read the description of the feature. They apparently don't know what that does and left the message in there for the whole world to see. I just added an arrow for clarity.

Mercedes is looking up their own features online to figure out what to write on their website. Nice.

I don't see any arrow. You've lost me.

Read the text in the gray box underneath the image of the option.

That said, no big deal and not really worthy of a comment.

When new models come out, the website configurator errors in logic, pricing and images are astounding and often comical. The current BMW 7 series was a good example

I still don't understand, but if Wolf doesn't care about it, neither do I.

It says under Speed Adjustment: Please provide info. Cannot find anything online, no details in DOG. Thanks!

Sounds like someone wrote a note and accidentally uploaded to the main website before they corrected the info.

So as Wolfman stated, much ado about nothing.

Ha ha, it looks like their web agency left that note for the product folks and they merely posted the page with the note. I have found numberous examples in the past where MBUSA left website page holders on the website. LOL
