It is all in perspective. A 50k mile caddy is 1/3 spent, if the average lifespan of a caddy is 150k miles. That would leave you 100k useable miles. An SDL with 250k and no rust is 1/4 spent, figuring a lifespan of 1 million. That leaves 750k to go. The cost of ownership of the SDL is less.
I'm a big fan of Mercedes and all, but you're giving too little credit to the Caddy, and WAY too much to the MB. If you maintain the Caddy to the same level needed for the MB to go 1 million miles, the Caddy will easily make it to 500k.
