What I'm saying is they don't question you about insurance. They assume you have it taken care of, and just leave it up to you to be a goodfella.

Yes, they waive all registration requirements. Because you can't get it registered until you have the car inspected.

Wouldn't it be a bummer to drive an average of 25k miles a year for all of your 20s and never have to use insurance? Up to age 25 insurance payments are outrageous even with a beater.
Huh? NOBODY likes to pay insurance premiums for coverage they may never need. I have two drivers under 25 on my policy. I know exactly how much it costs to insure young drivers.

Nobody likes to pay income tax, or get a prostate exam or anything else that is both 1)Not fun and 2)Expensive.

You have $15,000 to spend on a project car but you can't afford to drive a car legally? Doesn't that sound f'd up to you?

Probably because there are lots of people like you out there. Although that would be very scary.

Ya, I think about it all the time.

Your kids are fortunate enough to have a loving father who is A: Willing to add his kids onto his insurance, and B: Willing to pay for their insurance.

Technically....Asian trash. But like I mentioned earlier, I think he's as f'ed in the head as he is because he was born right around the time of the Chernobyl meltdown. That did a lot of damage physically and mentally to a lot of people who went through it. Lots of weird birth defects including under-developed brains.

I'm trying to give his stupidity an excuse.

Benzs55, please refrain from posting in other threads and keep your activity in this one. There are many new Benz owners who are looking for help and don't know about your complete lack of knowledge of these cars. It would be best that you don't try to "help" them and possibly lead them toward disastrous consequences with their cars.

Dave, your being a prejudice racist. Please keep those sorts of uneducated remarks to yourself. If your not happy about your life, do something about it. Your personal attacks are unfounded. I can feel your deep seeded hatred spilling out of you.

If you feel I'm misguiding new members, take it up with the moderators. Until then, take your doctor prescribed chill pills and keep calm.

My thoughts exactly. Posters will see that he has made some 1100 posts, mostly on this thread, and will think he has something to contribute when in fact he will deliver nothing but bad advise or worse, dangerous information.

I suggest you leave the race baiting to our illustrious president and his buddies like Al Sharpton & Jesse Jackson. You're not very good at it.

Your Ukrainian? I don't think so. You were born in America. Were raised by anti-communist propaganda from media, culture and parents growing up.

You think race is based on color?

Yes, race is based on color. In the US, our govt recognizes the following races: Hispanic, American Indian or Alaskan Native, Asian, Black or African American, Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander, and White. Most native Europeans and Russians are white. And from the pictures you've posted of yourself, you are white. There isn't a special category called stupid whitey....so we are stuck having to group you in with the rest of us.

And you believe the US categorization is how the rest of the world defines race? You sound like you have never traveled outside of you own ethnocentric mind let alone your own country. You have used the word dumb more than anyone in this thread. It seems to me you are emanating your own insecurities. Or maybe what your father verbally beat into your head?

Probably not. The rest define it by black, white, yellow, and brown.

But you live in America now. So get used to the way it's defined here.

Dave,

Benzs55 has a point... you can't paint all Ukrainians / Russians / Euros for being as 'dull apple' as a general rule based on the actions of one 'dull apple'.

But neither of those points are relevant against your decision to spend money on fridge/steering wheel ahead of insuring your Cedes... so no, statement that you think about it all the time is not correct.

Someone earlier alluded that this thread reminds them of the Titanic... I can see this now...
Launched ... OOeeer.. beautiful, lovely... Can't wait to see the destination.
Progress... Speed up! (accessory's before necessity's) Shortcuts! (tree to frame mentality) Don't mind the ice bergs! (frame pull? pfft... panels? mallet!)
Danger... Ice berg! (Proper Inspection) ... Hard to Port! (NY->OR->WA avoidance route)...
Impact... No problems! Unsinkable! (design/thinking flaw... passengers think we have enough lifeboats.. they don't check insurance so it's ok!)
Sinking... WTF not enough lifeboats? (no insurance!) Lock up the peons in steerage! (which is where you'll end up when you crash and injure someone)

it's comedic up to impact ... after that it's tragic.

You want respect from fellow MB owners... you have to show respect back and flouting the rules is the opposite of that. (and worse, makes you come out 'dull apple' which I'm sure you are not).

"Race, as a social construct, is a group of people who share similar and distinct physical characteristics.[1][2][3][4][5][6] First used to refer to speakers of a common language and then to denote national affiliations, by the 17th century race began to refer to physical (i.e. phenotypical) traits."

Wikipedia says your stuck in the middle ages DaveW.. Don't be a ignorant closed minded fool.

That was also a google search. Done similarly to the one I did for the new guy with fault codes. I suppose obd-codes.com gives out dangerous advice.

I didn't call all Ukranians dull apples. He said his last name means "apple". I only pointed out that "dull apple" would be more appropriate for him.

Uncanny...
LMAO!

I like the way your mind works

Your right, I did go overboard and do it backwards buy buying those items first. It was foolish me, because if I wouldn't have bought them the car would already be in the shop for repair.

It would have been easier to lie to Mike about having insurance. But I needed a push in the area of needing insurance, and I'm glad Mike called me out on it. I would rather tell the truth and learn, than lie and maintain a false sense of respect.
