Good Morning Jim, Greg, Andy!

Looks like Im last again.

 

You gotta get out of bed a little earlier

 

I have been staying later at the gym. I want to see if I can get down to a slim 210lbs by Christmas. Not looking good.

 

hello everybody.

they arent here yet, but i have to play with the germans from mercedes today. last night i put a big sign on the side of my toolbox that says "BUY AMERICAN". the big changeover from chrysler to mercedes happens on the 1st of january, so they are coming down to make sure we are snobby enough to represent and sell their overpriced crap product.

 

Morning CT...did someone say Mercedes???

We were trying to sell a 1983 500 for a customer of ours. Agreed with a client on price...they took it to a local MB specialist...he's worked on NOTHING but MB for 30 years. Turns out the electrical gremlins have attacked...the car needs a new dash...and...a new wiring harness. Total cost...$3500!!! That for a car we were trying to sell for 12 grand...needless to say...the car goes back to the original owner today!!!

 

Good evening everyone.

 

I thought Mercedes wanted out of Chrysler
That Mercede was mad at Chrysler

 

Good Evening CT.....

 

Good evening CT...what's up???

Dave...Daimler sold Chrysler Corp to Fiat...the 32 ranked automotive company in the world...I believe there are only 35!!! Fiat...Fix It Again Tony...paid nothing for the company...I believe they might have assumed some debt in the form of contracts etc.

 

Hi there Steve

 

Thanks Ken

 

Daimler-Benz bought Freightliner back in '81.

Dave, I'll get pricing for you tomorrow. It was busy today...

 

If a Freightliner is ultimately a Benz why is it a POS?

 

American ingenuity???
