Three points: 1) Kaleb looks for and buys cars with problems, betting that he can fix them. 2) Kalebs loves "pulling your chain", & any one elses for that matter. 3) Many of the members of this list are either religous, or obsessive about the MB brand - don't expect rational discourse regarding rival marques. Reminds me of orientation when I worked as an aide at a mental hospital - "never argue with the patients".
