I heard that when the 2019 mild hybrid W222 comes out, it will have a yet again face lifted body.

Too early for an April fool's joke...so since your title says you saw it, how would you describe the changes? When you say mild hybrid, did you hear the 4.0 liter V8 is getting it for 2019, or the V6, or will the I6 be coming to the US?

Uh-oh, OP's original post has been dramatically shortened! The MB police must have made a midnight visit to his home and revoked the secret hand shake and code word for him spilling the beans......

I think he was referring to the new wheels coming on the 2019 W222.

Oh, I’m alive and well, but I decided to hold off on my reveal, for a few days. However, now might be a good time for me to say that IMO, anyone who uses this forum to spew their own political views, has their head up their *** and is a fuxing idiot. I could give a rat’s *** what any of you think about politics. I hear enough of that crap all day long on the news. This forum is for talking about cars in general and the MB W222 in particular. If you can’t keep your own political views to yourself, kiss off! Or, as Jack Nicholson would say “Go sell crazy somewhere else. We’re all stocked up here.” Geez! I’m sorry, but if you’re spouting politics here, I’m shunning you. Life is way too short to have my passtime spoiled by political BULLSHXT!

Did I miss something. I read the thread twice to see if anyone posted political anything and I must be unable to read or I’m missing it completely. Where and who is posting politics?

Just like I thought, a bunch of nothing from the king of misinformation. Moderators need to close the thread.

JY-MB, my signature is political. The moderators decide what is and isn't appropriate, and off-topic signatures do not seem to violate their policies, as they have mentioned to me that a couple forum members had complained about my signature previously, but did not force me to change it. (I did voluntarily tone it down, though.) If Streamliner wants to "shun" me or put me on ignore, that is his prerogative of course, but is much less important to me than expressing my view. My sig is to me akin to wearing a political t-shirt when attending a concert; the audience is there to hear music, yes, but most open-minded, rational people living in democracies would find nothing at all wrong with another member of the audience wearing something like that, regardless of their own politics.

Hmmm...looks like signatures don't show up in chrome on an iphone. Maybe they don't show at all on phones.

I was just going to say that, signatures don’t seem to show up when you’re viewing on an iPhone at all, maybe to make things less cluttered. So can someone post the signature so I can read it?

2016 was the first election where I didn't vote Republican. Instead of defending the U.S. from further Russian election meddling, Trump is doing his best to "Make Russia Great Again". Too much of Fox News = Fake News & Trump spin. To anyone who objects to my signature: if you attended a basketball game and someone in the audience was wearing a t-shirt with a political message, would you call him to his face “a fuxing idiot” and ask stadium security to have the fellow cover up his shirt?
