Why does MB not join in and sell a competing pickup truck? I guess the lackluster sales of a Lincoln truck indicates this wouldn't make a hit, but I'd like to see what MB could muster up.

I see very few coupes & way fewer cabs on the street here in Orange County. I have no data to back it up, but my feeling is that these cars do not sell very well at all. That said, I do think that if the cab were offered in more pleasing interior & exterior colors, it could do better. Oh well.

Not crazy about the cab but really like the coupe which I think is selling in the same low numbers as every other S-Class (CL) coupe has in the past.

These cars are quite a bit more expensive that the sedan...

I also don't expect them to be discontinued.
