Where are the R owners????

I have been on this part of the forum for a month and there is barely anyone in this section. I see many R's on the road now so where are all of their owners???

It seems that R-Class chatter is very light,no matter what forum you are viewing.

I will be purchasing an R63 later this year. Nothing sounds more pleasing that kicking other SUV's and minivan's asses.

R350 Silver/Black
I think it's a good sign that chatter is light.

When I would go to forums in the past, it was the cars with the most problems that got a lot of talk. It seems that the common owner will only seek out a forum to complain. That would only leave the car enthusiasts left to chat and as much as I love my R class I don't think we will get too many people to sing it's praises because this is not a high performance car, in till the R63 comes out.

Also I bet because of the price of the car you don't have a lot of young people buying and since most people on the internet is under 50 that cuts into our numbers here.

You hit it right on spot man. Most forums exist to ***** and moan about products.
